If using Excel 2002 or 2003 you have the option when protecting the sheet of
allowing users to do certain operations on the sheet.

Earlier versions would require a macro to unprotect then re-protect the sheet.

ActiveSheet.Unprotect Password:="justme"

'do your stuff

ActiveSheet.Protect Password:="justme", DrawingObjects:=True, _
Contents:=True, Scenarios:=True

I wrote a macro to select certain options when reports on my worksheets are
being
printed. The sheets are then protected and when the macro is run, a message
appears stating that the commands could be accessed if the password is
entered (to remove the protection). How could I get the protection to
remain and get the macro to work.
