Default worksheet protection excel 2000 vrs 2003

When I was given this project I was told this was the oldest version I needed
to code for.
But Hey.
Thanks anyway.

Hi Dan

Confirming Alan's post, Excel 2000 can not do that. Unless the user defines
the protection password, your code could unprotect - format - reprotect the
sheet.

You should develop these things in the eraliest version to be used,
otherwise you are coding blindfolded.

HTH. Best wishes Harald

I have a worksheet with the code below running on excel 2003.
The worksheet is protected with "select unlocked cells" and "formatt

cells"
enabled.
When moved to excel 2000 the option for "formatt cells" fails.
Unsure how to correct this in excel 2000.
Any help would be a boon.
