Hi,

Rows with old data is protected in the sheet and the new data has to
be entered (in unprotected cells) using text import wizard. For this,
how can I automate text import wizard to run on a protected sheet? I
came up with the following, but its gives an error to run on a
protected sheet.

ActiveSheet.PasteSpecial Format:="Unicode Text", Link:=False, _
DisplayAsIcon:=False

Selection.TextToColumns Destination:=Range("F2885"),
DataType:=xlDelimited _
, TextQualifier:=xlDoubleQuote, ConsecutiveDelimiter:=False,
Tab:=False, _
Semicolon:=False, Comma:=False, Space:=False, Other:=True,
OtherChar _
:="|", FieldInfo:=Array(Array(1, 1), Array(2, 1), Array(3, 1),
Array(4, 1), Array(5, _
1), Array(6, 1), Array(7, 1), Array(8, 1), Array(9, 1),
Array(10, 1), Array(11, 1), Array(12 _
, 1), Array(13, 1), Array(14, 1), Array(15, 1), Array(16, 1),
Array(17, 1), Array(18, 1), _
Array(19, 1), Array(20, 1), Array(21, 1), Array(22, 1),
Array(23, 1), Array(24, 1)), _
TrailingMinusNumbers:=True

End Sub

I look forward to learning about the solution. Thanking in advance.
