how can I have spellcheck activated on a password
protected worksheet for cells that are unlocked
 
Chris, here is one way, password for sheet in this macro is 123, assign this
to a button on the sheet

Sub spellcheck()
ActiveSheet.Unprotect password:="123"
Cells.CheckSpelling CustomDictionary:="CUSTOM.DIC",
IgnoreUppercase:=False _
, AlwaysSuggest:=True
ActiveSheet.Protect password:="123"
End Sub
