    password As Object _
)

public void Unprotect(
    Object password
)

Parameters

password
Type: System.Object

The case-sensitive password to use to unprotect the workbook. If the workbook is not protected with a password, this parameter is ignored. If you omit this parameter for a workbook that is protected with a password, the method fails.

Examples

The following code example uses the Protect method to protect the structure of the workbook and workbook windows, but without specifying password protection. The example then prompts the user to unprotect the workbook by using the Unprotect method.

This example is for a document-level customization.

Private Sub WorkbookUnprotect()
    MsgBox("Protecting the workbook.")
    Me.Protect(structure:=True, windows:=True)

    If DialogResult.Yes = MessageBox.Show( _
        "Unprotect the workbook?", "Custom Unprotect Dialog", _
        MessageBoxButtons.YesNo) Then 
        Me.Unprotect()
    End If 
End Sub

private void WorkbookUnprotect()
{
    MessageBox.Show("Protecting the workbook.");
    this.Protect( true, true);

    if (DialogResult.Yes == MessageBox.Show("Unprotect the workbook?",
        "Custom Unprotect Dialog", MessageBoxButtons.YesNo))
    {
        this.Unprotect();
    }
}
