This example is for a document-level customization.

private void SetScenarioProtectionOn()
{
    if (!this.ProtectScenarios)
    {
        if (DialogResult.Yes == MessageBox.Show("Scenario protection is " +
            "turned off. Turn on scenario protection?", "Example",
            MessageBoxButtons.YesNo))
        {
            // Enable scenario protection, but do not change 
            // any other protection type.
            this.Protect(this.ProtectDrawingObjects,
                this.ProtectContents, true, this.ProtectionMode, 
                this.Protection.AllowFormattingCells,
                this.Protection.AllowFormattingColumns,
                this.Protection.AllowFormattingRows,
                this.Protection.AllowInsertingColumns,

                this.Protection.AllowFiltering,
                this.Protection.AllowUsingPivotTables);
        }
