Macro problem

I have an excel spreadsheet with 2 simple macros, which run in a specific order. Both macros unprotect the spreadsheet as the first step, and protect with the last step (password is included in code). After I run the first macro, if I go to unprotect the sheet, I am NOT prompted for a password. If I run the second macro, and then try to unprotect the sheet, I am prompted for a password. The macros both have the same language...???
 

Excel Facts

Copy a format multiple times
Select a formatted range. Double-click the Format Painter (left side of Home tab). You can paste formatting multiple times. Esc to stop
The .Protect and .Unprotect methods have an optional parameter which is the password. Are you sure you're supplying it when you unprotect and when you re-protect ?

Yes - both macros are identical with regards to the protect, unprotect. I am begining to think it is a glitch.
