Lock cells after using vlookup

Hi,

I am using two different workbooks - MainList which is the main sheet a all the items are locked and second workbook's name is say SampleData.
By using V lookup macro I have pasted data from MainList to SampleData and now I want to lock the cells so that they cannot be edited. I want the same macro to perform this function. How can it be done?

Thanks
 
Hi !​
Once your VBA code writes the result to the cell, it must set its Locked property to True
then its must protect the worksheet (see its Protection property).​
When a worksheet is protected, only the cells with their Locked property to False are editable …​
