clear cells macro
 
I am looking to set up a clear button on sheet 1 that when clicked on will
clear various cells on sheet two.

I have a clear button on sheet 1 that when clicked clears cells on sheet 1
that reads;
Range("A1:A77").ClearContents

but when I try to put that cammand button on page one to clear cells on page
two I can't get the proper script that works.

any help is appreciated.

To be more specific, I am trying to get a clear button on page one that when
clicked will clear all unprotected cells on pages 2, 3 and 4

Sub UnLocked_Cells()
Dim cell As Range, tempR As Range, rangeToCheck As Range
Dim ws As Worksheet
For Each ws In ActiveWorkbook.Sheets(Array _
("Sheet2", "Sheet3", "Sheet4"))
ws.Activate
For Each cell In ActiveSheet.UsedRange
If Not cell.Locked Then
cell.ClearContents
End If
Next cell

Next ws
End Sub

You should get used to referring to worksheets as "sheets" rather than "pages"
which is generally used to designate printed sheets of paper.

But don't use semicolons.

Worksheets("Sheet2").Range("A1,A77,B6,D15,G5").Cle arContents
or maybe
Worksheets("Sheet2").Range("A1:A77,B6:D15,G5").Cle arContents
