I'm trying answer a survey in an excel sheet and everytime I try to type in
an answer a message comes up saying I need to remove protection.When I head
up to tools and follow the prompts,I need a password to complete the
procedure . Can anyone tell me what that password is ?

Thanks

Hi,

Have you contacted the original author of the survey?

Hi Andy

Thanks for responding to my question.

It's not a "survey" as such. It basically an excel sheet which is a music
quiz ..you play a soundbite and answer who the artist is and song titile
etc.However when I went to type in an answer a message appeared as I stated
before. I've never encountered this before and was wondering what the
password would be to unlock this cell/chart so I can do this quiz !!
Sorry..it's not really important..or life or death..but I thought it odd I
needed a password to do anything !!

Cheers

Well the password would be whatever the author used to protect the
sheet/workbook.

As to why you should need a password to complete the quiz I can not say.
But it does not seem very practical, assuming you are using the the quiz
as instructed.

Maybe you could post a link to the location of the quiz.
