I have been trying to write a macro with no success to conditionally protect some cells.

The spread sheet is set up as follows

Column A Column B Column C
1
1
0
0
1
0

The entry in column A changes based on a formula to 1 or 0.
I want a macro that does the following:

If cell in Column A is 1, then unlock B & C on that row. If cell is column A is 0 then do not unlock B&C on that row.
Then I want it to carry on down the column working all the cells.

Thanks in advance for your help.

What is the code you are currently using? Something like this may work:

Code:
sub unlockCells()
for i = 1 to cells(rows.count,1).end(xlup).row
if cells(i,1).value = 1 then cells(i,2).resize(,2).locked = false else: cells(i,2).resize(,2).locked = true
next i
end sub
Hope that helps.
