I create a workbook with just one sheet, and make sure that
range("A1") is not Locked. With this book as the activeworkbook,
I run this code:

Sub Test_Protection()
Dim ws As Worksheet, c As Range
For Each ws In ActiveWorkbook.Worksheets
With ws
.Unprotect
For Each c In .UsedRange.Columns("A:G")
With c
If Not c.Locked = True Then
'User is permitted to edit this cell, so color it:
c.Interior.ColorIndex = 34
End If
If Not .Range("A1").Locked = True Then
.Range("A1").Interior.ColorIndex = 34
End If
End With
Next
End With
Next
End Sub

In this example, the 'c' code does not recognise that "A1" is
not Locked, but the "A1" code does, and the cell is coloured
correctly.

Why is the line 'If Not c.Locked = True Then' failing please?

Regards.
