Issue with UnProtect userinterfaceonly:=true
 
Hi all,

I have a file that has 65 sheets -- I would like to protect them all, but
not have to unprotect and then protect again each time I have code run to
change a given sheet. I was under the impression that "UnProtect
userinterfaceonly:=true" allows code to change a sheet without needing to
reprotect it. When I tried using this on a sheet that was protected (my line
of code is below), I get the good old Run-time error '1004 error. Any idea
on why this is not working? Thanks for your help!

Error:
Run-time error '1004': Application-defined or object defined error

Code:
Sheets("Transaction Summary").Unprotect userinterfaceonly:=True

userinterfaceonly is a parameter of the Protect method, not Unprotect.
