Default Spell check and protected worksheet

Does anyone know how to enable spell check when a
worksheet is protected? I've tried a number of different
options, but whenever I protect the worksheet I lost the
ability to spell check.

Couldn't find this on MS help anywhere. Would be happy to
hear if anyone has suggestions on how to resolve.

Thanks.

Hi
AFAIK you have to disable protection to use the spellchecker. You may
record a macro doing the following:
- disable protection
- run the spell checker
- enable protection
