I'm using the code below, but keep getting the following error:
Run-time error '1004'

Private Sub CommandButton31_Click()

ActiveSheet.Unprotect Password:="password1"

Range("AA57:AA57").Select
Range("AA57:AA57").Activate
Selection.RowHeight = 12.75
Range("AA58:AA58").Select
Range("AA58:AA58").Activate
Selection.RowHeight = 12.75
Range("AA59:AA59").Select
Range("AA59:AA59").Activate
Selection.RowHeight = 13.5

ActiveSheet.Protect Password:="password1"

End sub

Any idea on what I'm doing wrong and how to correct the problem?
 

Excel Facts

Why are there 1,048,576 rows in Excel?
The Excel team increased the size of the grid in 2007. There are 2^20 rows and 2^14 columns for a total of 17 billion cells.
Does this work?
Code:
Private Sub CommandButton31_Click()

    With ActiveSheet
        .Unprotect Password:="password1"
        .Range("AA57:AA57").RowHeight = 12.75
        .Range("AA58:AA58").RowHeight = 12.75
        .Range("AA59:AA59").RowHeight = 13.5
        .Protect Password:="password1"
    End With

End Sub

Maybe the password is incorrect, try and manually unprotect the sheet with password1
