Once again, I have posed a problem that no one is able to give an answer to. Scroll down in this message board to see my post: URGENT!! PLEASE!! Need help with inserting rows in an unlocked area of a protected sheet, without unprotecting the
sheet. - Tony 16:11:26 10/06/01 (0) In fact no one has even been able to tell me that I can not insert additional rows in an unlocked area of a protected sheet, and that the only way to do it is to unprotect the sheet.

Ok, try this....

There is one thing that enables you to EXECUTE MACROS, in which you can insert o remove rows, columns, whatever you want, WITHOUT removing the protection fromt the sheets.

Use a macro like this (In your Workbook module)

Const PW = "aaron"

Private Sub Workbook_Open()
For Each sht In ActiveWorkbook.Sheets
ActiveSheet.Protect _
password:=PW, _
DrawingObjects:=True, _
Contents:=True, _
Scenarios:=True, _
UserInterfaceOnly:=True 'This is the important one.
Next sht
End Sub
