Default change color and protect rows

Hi, everyone! Please, I need your help!!!

I have a worksheet with dates on a1:a1096
The following code is working nicely and it changes
the appropriate cells to gray.
1) How can I extend the
"graying" to include the rows up to BQ?
2) And, also, lock those rows?
------------------------------
Private Sub ChangeColorToGray_Click()
Dim Y As Long
Worksheets(1).Unprotect
Y = (Year(Date))
With Worksheets(1).Range("a1:a1096")
Set c = .Find(Y, LookIn:=xlValues)
If Not c Is Nothing Then
firstAddress = c.Address
Do
c.Interior.Pattern = xlPatternGray50
Set c = .FindNext(c)
Loop While Not c Is Nothing And c.Address < firstAddress
End If
End With
Worksheets(1).Protect
End Sub
-------------------------------
As always, thanks in advance and your help is very appreciated!

Frank,
I wish it was that easy!
It only picks up column A where it is matching the date.
I need to extend the color to include 68 columns to the right? And lock
those cells.
How do I reference those columns?
Thanks,

Change that to

c.Resize(1,68).Interior.Pattern = xlPatternGray50

maybe:

Private Sub ChangeColorToGray_Click()
Dim Y As Long
Worksheets(1).Unprotect
Y = (Year(Date))
With Worksheets(1).Range("a1:a1096")
Set c = .Find(Y, LookIn:=xlValues)
If Not c Is Nothing Then
firstAddress = c.Address
Do
c.Resize(1, 69).Interior.Pattern = xlPatternGray50
c.resize(1, 69).cells.locked = true
'entirerow??
'c.entirerow.cells.locked = true
Set c = .FindNext(c)
Loop While Not c Is Nothing And c.Address < firstAddress
End If
End With
Worksheets(1).Protect
End Sub

c.resize(1,69)
extends from A (where C is located) for 69 columns--all the way to BQ.

And did you really mean the whole row--or just A:BQ?

Works great! Thank you, Myrna and Dave.

And, yes it was up to BQ not the entirerow, but thanks for including the
entire row, it will come in handy soon : ) thanks.

One last question.
If I want Y to be = years "different than" Year(Date)
I assumed that I could write Y<Year(Date)
but I get an error. What would be the correct code?
Thanks,
