Protecting worksheet
 

Hi
I have a worksheet that is used to display the data by selecting various options in the different controls. I want that no user is able to change anything except select different options. I first unlocked various objects and cells and password protected it( I do not want the code to be visible) but the problem is that even by first unlocking different cells and objects , the code is giving run-time error
Is there any solution to it

Shilps, copy your code into a post so we can see it. (do not attach a
workbook)

At the top of the code try putting in code like

ActiveSheet.Protect UserInterFaceOnly:=True

if you are using Excel 2002 or later, you need to include

ActiveSheet.Protect Password:="ABCD", UserInterFaceOnly:=True

otherwise, you have have your code unprotect the sheet, do its work,
reprotect the sheet.
