Hi all. I am using this amazing Macro below. Thanks to user Fluff. I can not however get it to work once sheet protected.... Anyone know how to make that work?
I am a beginner so please keep in mind I do not know the language terms or where to find most stuff well.


VBA Code:
Sub DropDownListToDefault()
   Dim Rng As Range
   
   Application.ScreenUpdating = False
   On Error Resume Next
   Set Rng = ActiveSheet.UsedRange.SpecialCells(xlCellTypeAllValidation)
   Rng.Value = "'- Choose Option -"
   On Error GoTo 0
End Sub
