Worksheet Activate event if only one sheet in book
You could just put your code inside the open.
Private Sub Workbook_Open()
With ThisWorkbook.Worksheets("Sheet1")
.Unprotect Password:="abc"
.Range("A3").Value = "TestData"
.Protect Password:="abc"
End With
End Sub
Also, Private Sub Workbook_Activate() always fires after
Workbook_Open(), so you could put it there, and it would work every
time you switch to this workbook from another.

I have the following code in the Activate event of Sheet1. There is
only one sheet in the workbook.
'
Private Sub Worksheet_Activate()
With ThisWorkbook.Worksheets("Sheet1")
.Unprotect Password:="abc"
.Range("A3").Value = "TestData"
.Protect Password:="abc"
End With
End Sub
'
I get an error message stating that cell A3 cannot be changed as it is
protected, which means that the "unprotect" part did not execute. The
Workbook Open event activates Sheet 1 (see the code further below).
If I execute the sub a second time (since opening the workbook) then
it works fine.
I have also noticed that the error goes away if I introduce a second
sheet and using the Workbook BeforeClose event to activate the second
sheet before the Open event activates Sheet1.

Private Sub Workbook_Open()
ThisWorkbook.Worksheets("Sheet1").Activate
ActiveSheet.Range("A12").Activate
End Sub
