Hi,
I have a workbook that is protected by password.
Everytime I fix some problems, I have to unprotect sheets.
This is really annoying.
How can I unprotect sheets and workbooks while I am updating or changing?
Thanks

Hi Goodstart14,
Since you have a password, open the workbook unprotect it and save it.
Reopen the work book it will be in unprotect mode by now.
record a macro doing the unprotecting the sheets 1 by 1, then record another macro protecting each 1. Then run them when needed
1. Use code tags for VBA. [code] Your Code [/code] (or use the # button)
2. If your question is resolved, mark it SOLVED using the thread tools
3. Click on the star if you think someone helped you

Thanks.
I did what you said and this workbook is unprotected.
How about worksheets?
I unprotect sheet1 then save it and reopen, but it didn't work.
I also made macros but it protected right away.record a macro doing the unprotecting the sheets 1 by 1, then record another macro protecting each 1. Then run them when needed
What should I do?
Thanks
Not sure I understand? if you unprotect the WS, it will not just re-protect itselfI also made macros but it protected right away.
When I unprotect by password, the Sheet is unprotected , then when I click any cell in the Sheet, all tabs are gray out.
For example:
I have to click Review tab again to unprotect, and then go to Home tab to change font, then all tabs are gray out again. I have to click Review tab again,,,,,,,,
How can I solve this problem?
upload a sample please
Hi, If i not wrong the ws may has a VBA written, if you think you don't need it maybe you can delete it, and do remember VBA will gone forever.
maybe you need to upload a sample so that we can more clearly what you means.
hmm well if you have VBA applying your protection, then unprotecting manually will have no affect. Thats a small detail that you should have shared upfront
