Default Can I protect all excel tabs in a file with one password entry

Paul B - this is great stuff. How would I alter that statement to indicate a
specified range of columns and rows? e.g. I want to protect Column B, and
Rows 2 and 3 on all sheets.

Indiana, you can use a macro like this,

Sub protect_sheets()

Dim ws As Worksheet

For Each ws In ThisWorkbook.Worksheets

ws.Protect password:="123"

Next ws

End Sub

I have spreadsheets with multiple tabs - I presently have to password
protect
each tab separately. I'm looking for a way to protect all tabs with one
password entry. i am not share the files, but others do view them and I
don't want changes made.
