Macro to unprotect workbook
 
Hi

I have the following macros coded to protect and unprotect a workbook I'm
working on. However, when I try to unprotect the workbook using
UnprotectAllSheets(), it keeps failing, particularly with reference to the
part ".Cells.FormulaHidden = False". This had worked fine for a while, but
now that other macros have been put into the workbook, it now seems to fail.

Has anybody any thoughts on what might be causing this? Thanks in advance
for any help.

Mike


Sub UnprotectAllSheets()

Application.ScreenUpdating = False
Dim n As Single
For n = 1 To Sheets.Count
With Sheets(n)
.Unprotect Password:="password"
.Cells.FormulaHidden = False
End With
Next n
Application.ScreenUpdating = True

End Sub


Sub ProtectAllSheets()

Application.ScreenUpdating = False
Dim n As Single
For n = 1 To Sheets.Count
Sheets(n).Protect Password:="password"

Next n
Application.ScreenUpdating = True

End Sub


Sub HideFormulaCode()

Application.ScreenUpdating = False
Dim n As Single
For n = 1 To Sheets.Count
With Sheets(n)
.Cells.FormulaHidden = True
.Protect Password:="password"

End With
Next n
Application.ScreenUpdating = True

End Sub

Yes

You use sheets in your loop
There are no cells in a chart sheet that's why your code blow.

Change sheets to worksheets in the code(2*) and it will work for all the worksheets

Macro to unprotect workbook
 
Do you have merged cells on any of the sheets. Just a guess, but that can
sometimes interfere when you are changing properties.
