Hi Osama,
By default all cells are blocked. So first unblock them by selecting all cells (Ctrl+a or click on the spot above the 1 of row 1) and going to cell properties (Ctrl+1 or right-click > cell properties).
Go to the final tab called protection and uncheck the blocked option.
Now select A2:M2 and check the blocked option again.
Once that is done, implement the following code (right-click sheets tab > view code > paste code) and try it out:

Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
If Intersect(Target, Range("M2")) Is Nothing Then Exit Sub
If Target = "app" Then
ActiveSheet.Protect Password:="Password", DrawingObjects:=True, Contents:=True, Scenarios:=True
End If
End Sub

Hi Osama,
For that a minor change in the code is needed:
Change (from the second code line):
Range("M2")
into:
Columns("M:M")
Also make sure you have the right cells blocked.
