Hi
I've tested this with sheet not visible, workbook protected, two
workbooks open & so on, and it works OK.
Only things I can think of,
1. Workbook is corrupted in some way

2. Sheet does not exist? In which case you would need
On Error Resume Next
Set myWS = Sheets(mySheet)
On Error GoTo 0

to test sheet exists before trying to unprotect it.
3. I searched the knowledge base, and there seems to be vague
suggestions that creating the workbook on a mac then using on a PC
might create this error.

sorry can't be of more help
regards
Paul

Thanks for your quick answer Paul, but the password is the same on all sheets
of my workbook.

I deleted the entire Sub Workbook_open() and reinserted the simple procedure :

Sub Workbook_open()

Sheets("Sheet1").Unprotect Password:="mypassword"

End Sub

I got the same error when I opened the workbook.

Regards,

Henk

Does that sheet have that password? Check there isn't a leading or
trailing space in the sheet password.

To unprotect my entire workbook on opening, I start on ThisWorkbook the
following procedure :

Private Sub WorkBook_Open()
Application.ScreenUpdating = False

For Each WkSht in Worksheets
* * * WkSht.Unprotect Password:="mypassword"
Next WkSht

I have a lot of workbooks with this procedure fuctioning properly, however
there is one which each time results in Runtime error 57121 :
Applikcation-defined or object-defined error. Debugging points me to the line
: WkSht.Unprotect Password:="mypassword"

(In the same workbook I have a macro, using the same code, wich is working
without errors.)

Any idea how to solve this?- Hide quoted text -
