i have recorded a macro that clears the contents of the unprotected unlock
cells. i would like to have a message asking if the user is sure that they
want to clear the contents or not to. is this possible?

Option Explicit
Sub YourMacHere()
Dim resp as long
resp = msgbox(prompt:="Are you sure?", buttons:=vbyesno)
if resp = vbno then
exit sub
end if

'rest of your code
End Sub

modifications, how would i implement your code?

You have existing code for your macro, right?

You'd copy the guts that I wrote and paste it into your procedure--right near
the top, before anything really important.

Dim resp as long
resp = msgbox(prompt:="Are you sure?", buttons:=vbyesno)
if resp = vbno then
exit sub
end if


Are the only lines you'd want to paste (without those symbols, of course).
