Unlocking A Previously Locked Project

[Gray M. Strickland]

I am the author of a template which contains many macros. I distribute it to
my users via a logon script which copies from the master template to one on
each user's local pc whenever they logon. Thus, master.dot gets copied
everymorning to today.dot, overwriting the previous day's template on their
pc. To keep people from screwing things up, I protected the master template.
Now I want to UN-protect it, but when I open the master template in VB
editor (TOOLS, Master.DOT Properties...) it shows that Master.dot is not
locked. When I try to do the same on my personal copy of today.dot (the
daily copy of master.dot), it says that the project is not viewable.

If master.dot is not locked, what I have done (months or years ago) to lock
today.dot? And how do I un-do it? Today.dot is not marked read-only. I'm
sure that I have the password, but if TOOLS, [templatename] Properties is
not the way to unlock, what is?

Are you distributing this template as an add-in? If so it is not viewable
unless you actually open the template as a document. Add-ins are visible in
the VBA project list, and you can call their code, but you can't view the
project itself unless the template is open.
