Hi all,

I've got a spreadsheet that a number of people view. I've recorded a
macro so that each person can press a button and only their information
is displayed. This works fine and dandy.

My problem arises where I have protected sheets, which - in recording
the macro - I unprotected to run the autofilter, then reprotected once
the filtration was complete. I'd like Excel to automatically go through
this process rather than prompting the user for the password (the whole
point is so they can't change certain columns of data).

Here is the macro as it currently stands:

Sub PF()

' PF Macro
' Macro recorded 06/06/2006 by SamuelT

'
Sheets("Programme (2 Week)").Select
ActiveSheet.Unprotect
Selection.AutoFilter Field:=9, Criteria1:="Peter Farrant"
ActiveSheet.Protect DrawingObjects:=True, Contents:=True,
Scenarios:=True
Sheets("Programme (High Level)").Select
ActiveSheet.Unprotect
Selection.AutoFilter Field:=9, Criteria1:="Peter Farrant"
ActiveSheet.Protect DrawingObjects:=True, Contents:=True,
Scenarios:=True
Sheets("Capacity").Select
ActiveSheet.Unprotect
Selection.AutoFilter Field:=5, Criteria1:="Peter Farrant"
ActiveSheet.Protect DrawingObjects:=True, Contents:=True,
Scenarios:=True
Sheets("Components").Select
ActiveSheet.Unprotect
Selection.AutoFilter Field:=3, Criteria1:="Peter Farrant"
ActiveSheet.Protect DrawingObjects:=True, Contents:=True,
Scenarios:=True
Sheets("Billing").Select
ActiveSheet.Unprotect
ActiveWindow.ScrollColumn = 1
Selection.AutoFilter Field:=3, Criteria1:="Peter Farrant"
ActiveSheet.Protect DrawingObjects:=True, Contents:=True,
Scenarios:=True
ActiveWindow.ScrollWorkbookTabs Position:=xlLast
Sheets("Extra Fees Calculator").Select
ActiveSheet.Unprotect
Selection.AutoFilter Field:=3, Criteria1:="Peter Farrant"
ActiveSheet.Protect DrawingObjects:=True, Contents:=True,
Scenarios:=True
ActiveWindow.ScrollWorkbookTabs Position:=xlFirst
Sheets("Programme (2 Week)").Select
End Sub

Can anyone suggest what I might alter/add/edit to automatically
unprotect and reprotect the worksheets?

TIA,

SamuelT
