Change the password to what it really is, though.

And you want the first number to always be a certain number (no user input)???

replace:
vResult1 = Application.InputBox( _
Prompt:="Enter number to replace", _
Default:=29, _
Title:="Replacer", _
Type:=1)
with
vResult1 = 12345

(or whatever number you always want.)

I need to protect this sheet and tried the
ActiveSheet.Unprotect(at begining) and ActiveSheet.Protect
(at end) and it did not work?

I also wanted to eliminate the first prompt by making the
first Default any number other than zero?

Thank you for any assistance you can give.
