Excel Vba Question:

I now what to add more excel formulas to this file and want to use a macro to do it. How can I enter the unprotect password automaticaly as part of the macro and then protect the sheet again before saving and closing?

Excel Vba Answer:

How to unprotect microsoft excel worksheet password, assuming the book is already open:
Dim Wsh as worksheet
set wsh= activeworkbook.Worksheets(1) ‘Eg: for 1 sheet of active book

wsh.unprotect “your_password”
‘… do what you have to do here
‘then reprotect with wsh.protect …..

(If you wish to unprotect a protected vba project, not the sheet, then it
is not possible through coding)
