insert rows--->protected sheet

A

Art

I have a protected sheet in Excel 2007, and I would like to write a macro
that allows a user to insert a new row(s) that also copies the formulas (but
not the text/data) from the previous row.

When I searched for a possible solution, I found the following macro #2,
which works perfectly, if the sheet is unprotected. I use the following code
(macro #1) in another macro to unprotect a sheet temporarily to run a macro,
then re-protect it.

I select a row on the spreadsheet and run the macro
InsertRowsAndFillFormulas_caller(). I get a "Compile Error: Invalid or
Unqualified reference".

Any thoughts how to use Macro #2 and embedding Macro #1 so the sheet is
temporarily unprotected, code to insert row/copy formulas is completed, then
sheet is protected again?



-----------------------------------------------------------
MACRO #1---Unprotect Sheet/Re-protect Sheet
-----------------------------------------------------------

Dim strSheetName As String
strSheetName = ActiveSheet.Name

Const MyPassword As String = "kendallpassword"

Dim ChangeProtection As Boolean

With Sheets(strSheetName)
If .ProtectContents = True Then
.Unprotect (MyPassword)
ChangeProtection = True
End If

If ChangeProtection = True Then .Protect (MyPassword)

MACRO #2---INSERT ROW/COPY FORMULA
