Protection Message
 

When a worksheet is protected and a cell is locked then an Error message
appears whenever the user attempts to edit the cell.
Is there an event that I can tap into so that I can display my own message
and run my own routine instead of the standard message?

Thanks for any help

AFAIK, no.

Maybe you could just stop them from selecting locked cells on your worksheet:

Option Explicit
Sub auto_open()
With Worksheets("Sheet1")
.Protect Password:="hi"
.EnableSelection = xlUnlockedCells
End With
End Sub

And xl2002 added the ability to set the enableselection property via the
userinterface.
