Run Time Error 1004

Asked by greg_c in Microsoft Excel Spreadsheet Software

Tags: ,

Hi

I have a macro the protects and unprotect a workbook.  When I manually unprotect a workbook and try to do something I get the following message:

 "Run Time Error 1004:  

The cell or chart you are tryint ot change is protected and therefore read-only.  

To modify a protect cell or chart, first remove protection using the Unprotect sheet command( Tools menu, Protection submenu).  You may be prompted for a password"

Would anyone have any ideas why this is happening?
