Add the command Activecell.Select before you try the unprotect method.
There's a known issue with command buttons taking the focus in Excel
97 which often causes the kind of problem you're referring to.

I am having problems toggling the Protect mode on a spreadsheet. I can
Protect/Unprotect from the Tools menu.

The workbook is not protected nor is it shared.

When I execute my macro I get the following error message:

Run-time error '1004':

Unprotect method of Worksheet class failed

The message occurs when I execute either of the following:

- Sheets("SheetName").Unprotect
- Worksheets("SheetName").Unprotect

The macro is executed by clicking on a button on the worksheet.

I am running Excel 97.
