    Re: modify locked cells

    lets say you want to change the value of cell F20 in sheet 1 and your sheet is protected with the password "jug" ('locked' property doesn't hold good if the sheet is not protected)

    try the following macro

    VB Code:
    1. Sub Macro1()
    2. Sheets("sheet1").Select
    3. ActiveSheet.Unprotect ("jug") ' unprotect sheet using "jug" as password
    4.     Range("f20").Select
    5.     Range("f20").Value = 10 ' change value of cell
    6. ActiveSheet.Protect ("jug") ' protect sheet using "jug" as password
    7. End Sub

    hope this helps...
