Place new code in the macros to unprotect the sheet, run the existing
code then protect the sheet.

Sub ControlFormMacro
Worksheets("LargeWorksheet").Unprotect "password"
'code to do stuff
Worksheets("LargeWorksheet").Protect "password"
End Sub

I have a large worksheet that requires data entry by other users. There are
both locked and unlocked cells within the worksheet. The database contains
several control form macros that cannot run if the sheet is protected.
Portions of the worksheet require sheet protection to prevent changes. Is
there a way to protect the worksheet and still run the macros?
