Hi

Providing you know your existing password, just unprotect the sheet using
that password.

Then when you protect again, give a new password.
If it is only for yourself, to prevent accidental overwriting of formulae or
other cell contents, then don't bother to give a password at all - it's
optional.
Just right click on sheet tab>Protect Sheet>OK

If you have lost your password, there are plenty of tools available to
unprotect sheets with a password. It is not something that is totally
secure.
If you need to do this, then go to J E McGimpsey's site
