HI Kyle,
See if this yields the desired result:
Create a button and goto the properties of the button.
Change (Name) into: cmdProtection
Change Caption into: Click here to protect all sheets
Still being in design mode, right-click the button and select view code.
Use this code:
Now change everything/something/nothing between two double quotes ("") to suit your personal style.
Best regards,
Trowa

Dim ws As Worksheet
Dim x As String
x = InputBox("Please provide password")
If cmdProtection.Caption = "Click here to protect all sheets" And x = PW Then
For Each ws In Worksheets
ws.Protect Password:=PW, DrawingObjects:=True, Contents:=True, Scenarios:=True
Next ws
cmdProtection.Caption = "Click here to unprotect all sheets"
ElseIf cmdProtection.Caption = "Click here to unprotect all sheets" And x = PW Then
For Each ws In Worksheets
ws.Unprotect Password:=PW
Next ws
cmdProtection.Caption = "Click here to protect all sheets"
End If
End Sub
Now change everything/something/nothing between two double quotes ("") to suit your personal style.

In my code I have:
Private Sub Workbook_Deactivate()
Call ToggleCutCopyAndPaste(True)
End Sub
how could we ues this to create a button that is password enabled to Activate the 'ToggleCutCopyPaste'

Does this work for you?:
Private Sub cmdProtection_Click() Const PW As String = "Password" Dim x As String x = InputBox("Please provide password") If cmdProtection.Caption = "Click here to protect all sheets" And x = PW Then Call ToggleCutCopyAndPaste(True) cmdProtection.Caption = "Click here to unprotect all sheets" ElseIf cmdProtection.Caption = "Click here to unprotect all sheets" And x = PW Then Call ToggleCutCopyAndPaste(False) cmdProtection.Caption = "Click here to protect all sheets" End If End SubHave no idea if this would work for you since I do not know what code is behind "ToggleCutCopyAndPaste".
"Private Sub Workbook_Deactivate()" will make the code run when you exit the workbook and is no option when you want to use a button.
Best regards,
