Within a macro I am using

.CommandBars("Tools").Controls("Protection").Enabl ed = False

However this disables the entire Tools, Protection menu item.

I only want to disable Tools, Protection, Protect Workbook,

This because the workbook is password protected by macro when it is closed
and a user, users password protecting the workbook mid session is causing
problems.

Users need access to Tools Protection Unprotect Sheet during session.

Many Thanks
