It is one more event after unprotected that specific worksheet, like
enable some grayed option buttons.
obj.Object.Enabled = False
However, I need to click the worksheet again to make it happen. I don't
know why the code couldn't execute it directly.Do you have some idea
regarding this issue?

I see no reason why what you have posted shouldn't work. The syntax could be
cleaned up a bit but it should not affect the actual execution... In your
title you mentioned "event". Is this code executed based on an event?

with Worksheets("Sheet1")
If .Range("E5").Value = "1" Then
.Protect
ElseIf .Range("E5").Value = "2" Then
.Unprotect
.Range("J8").Value = "111"
End If
end with

Here is sample code:

Else
If Worksheets("Sheet1").Range("E5").Value = "2" Then
Worksheets("Sheet1").Unprotect
Worksheets("Sheet1").Range("J8").Value = "111"
End If
End If

When I choose the value 2 in the dropdown list of range E5, it can
unprotect this worksheet. But, it doesn't execute the clause after
unprotect. However, after I click anything on this worksheet, the
clause after unprotect runs(111 appears on the range J8). I am confused
about this. Do you know how to fix this problem?Thank you!
