Default Unprotecting worksheets

Lauren,

You will have to un-share the workbook, make the changesa and then re-share.

When competing hypotheses are otherwise equal, adopt the hypothesis that
introduces the fewest assumptions while still sufficiently answering the
question.

I recently created a workbook that I shared with other users in our network.
I protected and locked certain cells, only allowing some to be changed
without a password. Now, I am trying to edit the cells and it doesn't even
prompt me for my password, I can't do anything!

When I go to "unprotect sheet" like Excel help says, only "Protect sheet" is
an option (other is greyed out). Also I cannot even right click on any of
the locked cells to "unlock them". I don't know what to do!!!!!! I spent
hours working on these worksheets!
