There MAY be an option in Excel to prompt for this.If so, then it may be 
selected when the software is installed, or in a Profile.
If that's the case, it's unlikely we could programmatically change the Excel 
settings.
Glad the macro worked! Paul-----------------------------------------

 Paul Schreiner: 1. Your second solution of creating a macro worked. Thank you! 
You definitely are an Excel guru.2. Initially, when I unprotected each sheet, 
re-selected the cells to lock, selected Lock in the Protection tab, selected a 
cell which was not locked, set the Protect password, saved, exited, and 
re-opened the spreadsheet, it still prompted for a password.3. I am using MS 
Professional Plus 2013

Excel Experts:1. I locked selected cells in a spreadsheet (which contain 
formulae) and set Protect with a password.2. Each time a user opens the 
spreadsheet, the "Unprotect Sheet" password dialog box prompt comes up.3. Is 
there a way I can suppress this dialog box from coming up? I want the users to 
be able to use this spreadsheet without that pop-up message coming each time. 
Then they think they have to enter a password, which is not the case. It causes 
confusion to some of them.
Thank you for your help!
