    need help with password protection and macro

    to the following syntax what can be added so that I can put a password (2468)
    on the protection of the sheet. Right now, this sheet automatically protects
    itself and I want to add a password. Can a macro automatically enter a
    password (2468) upon its protection of the sheet?

    Option Explicit

    Private Sub worksheet_change(ByVal target As Range)
    Dim rngDV As Range
    Dim oldVal As String
    Dim newVal As String
    If target.Count > 1 Then GoTo exitHandler

    On Error Resume Next
    Set rngDV = Cells.SpecialCells(xlCellTypeAllValidation)
    On Error GoTo exitHandler

    If rngDV Is Nothing Then GoTo exitHandler

    If Intersect(target, rngDV) Is Nothing Then
    'do nothing
    Else
    Application.EnableEvents = False
    newVal = target.Value
    Application.Undo
    oldVal = target.Value
    target.Value = newVal
    If target.Column = 11 Then
    If oldVal = "" Then
    'do nothing
    Else
    If newVal = "" Then
    'do nothing
    Else
    target.Value = oldVal _
    & ", " & newVal
    End If
    End If
    End If
    End If

    exitHandler:
    Application.EnableEvents = True

    If target.Cells.Count > 1 Then Exit Sub
    If target.Row < 10 Or target.Row > 13 Then Exit Sub
    Application.EnableEvents = False
    If target.Column = 2 Then
    If IsNumeric(target) = False Then
    If Len(target) > 0 Then
    target.Offset(0, 4) = ""
    End If
    End If
    End If
    Application.EnableEvents = True
    End Sub

    Thank You

    RE: need help with password protection and macro

    I am sorry,
    I posted wrong syntax it should be:

    Option Explicit

    Private Sub Workbook_Open()
    ThisWorkbook.Sheets("Patrol Log") _
    .Protect DrawingObjects:=True, _
    contents:=True, Scenarios:=True, _
    UserInterfaceOnly:=True
    End Sub

    See code below for example syntax

    Public Sub ProtectAllSheets()
    'Courtesy of J E McGimpsey
    'Space allowed for insertion of a password
    'Code lists every sheet with it's protection status
    Application.ScreenUpdating = False
    Const PWORD As String = ""
    Dim wkSht As Worksheet
    Dim statStr As String

    For Each wkSht In ActiveWorkbook.Worksheets
    With wkSht
    statStr = statStr & vbNewLine & "Sheet " & .Name
    wkSht.Protect Password:=PWORD
    statStr = statStr & ": Protected"
    End With
    Next wkSht
    MsgBox Mid(statStr, 2)
    Application.ScreenUpdating = True
    End Sub


    Public Sub UnprotectAllSheets()
    'Courtesy of J E McGimpsey
    'Space allowed for insertion of a password
    'Code lists every sheet with it's protection status
    Application.ScreenUpdating = False
    Const PWORD As String = ""
    Dim wkSht As Worksheet
    Dim statStr As String

    For Each wkSht In ActiveWorkbook.Worksheets
    With wkSht
    statStr = statStr & vbNewLine & "Sheet " & .Name
    wkSht.Unprotect Password:=PWORD
    statStr = statStr & ": Unprotected"
    End With
    Next wkSht
    MsgBox Mid(statStr, 2)
    Application.ScreenUpdating = True
    End Sub
