You must unprotect the sheet, spellcheck then re-protect the sheet.

Sub Spell_Check()
ActiveSheet.Unprotect Password:="justme"
Cells.CheckSpelling SpellLang:=1033
ActiveSheet.Protect Password:="justme", DrawingObjects:=True, _
Contents:=True, Scenarios:=True
End Sub

Note: was written using xl2003 so you may have to change the 1033 to accomodate
xl2000. Never having used xl2000 I'm not sure about that.

Can you perform spell check on a protected sheet in excel? If not is there a
macro or program that will do spell check while the sheet is protected?
