We will assume you have used the password "Lock" to protect your sheet.
Use this code:

ActiveSheet.UnProtect Lock
'your code here
ActiveSheet.Protect Lock

of course, adjust the password to meet your needs.

Reminder: passwords on sheets only stop someone from inadvertantly
changing data. Any one so inclined can break an Excel password in a
matter of a few minutes!
