I have a list of e-mail addresses stored in an Excel file (column A). I need to generate some passwords basing on these e-mail addresses which would then be automatically stored in the same row as the passwords, only this time in column B. The passwords could be numbers based on some text to number conversion (which I could additionally add some mathematical operation to, to make the password harder to crack). The passwods would then be distributed among the owners of these e-mail addresses.
View 5 Replies View RelatedI need some code that will generate passwords from a combination of a master password and other words such as a user name. I have seen references to use of the MD5 algorithm but would not know if or how this could be incorporated into vba.
This would be used in an workbook which is distributed to different users. In order to use the workbook, they would need to enter their user name and password. The macro would check if these were correct or not. Because the password is generated by the macro, it avoids having to have them hidden in the workbook somewhere.
I have a workbook in which users record the time spent on various activities. I have some code which will copy the worksheet template and create a worksheet for each user (in a defined list of names). Then each worksheet needs to be password protected so only the user can see it (I can do this individually by manually writing in each sheet name and setting a password but will have 80+ users for some groups and it will take ages...)
What I would like to be able to do is also automatically generate a password for each user (combining a word and automatic number e.g. "EMidsTeam123") it may be possible to insert this into the code I already have (which I have copied )...
VB:
Private Sub Workbook_SheetActivate(ByVal Sh As Object)
Dim strPass As String
Dim lCount As Long
If Sh.CodeName <> "Sheet1" Then
'Set sLast variable to the last active sheet This is then used to return the user to the last sheet they were

I have a spreadsheet that has thousands of rows, but they only want every 200th row to be populated with said data values.
Is there a way that I can auto-generate those values separately?
In the one Attached, I don't have thousands of rows.

I have an event that is one week long (7 days), with three functions happening each day (7 days - 3 columns per day).
There are 11 groups with various number of possible attendees listed in rows. Attendees of a given function is indicated by entry of a 1 or 2 (attending partner), Blank = not attending.
I would like to show a list of the attendees for a given function by clicking or moving my mouse pointer on the event function column header.
The list would need to be automatically updated when the attendees status changes (entry or deletion of 1 or 2)
I don't want to create a function to use within a cell, I need the Sub to run through a user form. I have a Userform to create a new account, and need to add a 6 digit unique identifier after a predetermined prefix ("T" for toddler, "Y" for youth, and "A" for adult). The constraints are that it cannot be duplicated (this is for multiple children registered within the company). I have tried using the GUID but having difficulty stripping characters and adding the prefix (this was my fix inclination).

Once a week at work I get a report that is split up via our 3 digit office codes.
Once a week I manually sort the info and split the original sheet into separate sheets based on the office code and mail it to them.
Its is simple and repetitive but takes me half a day to do due to the size.
I have a user form into which data can be entered and is populated on the next sheet. The order ID is unique, is there way I can make the Order ID auto generated each time a record is entered instead of manually keying the number?

View 6 Replies View Relatedafter spending hours searching the forum, I begin to seriously doubt my ability to even formulate a suitable search question. My problem SHOULD be a known one, but I am unable to find any clues. Here we go:
I have made a pretty stright-forward forecasting model. It is used to calculate economics of a coal fuelled power plant (even though that shouldn't matter). The outcome is, among other things, a single number for Profit / MWh in Euros. There are several input data, such as fuel price, price for CO2 emission rights, operational expenditure, capex, etc.
My idea, then, is to lock all in-data parameters except ONE, then let this variable vary incrementally and then produce a new small table with a) the variable data (example: price for CO2 rights ranging from 10 to 50 Euro in 2 euro steps), and b) the resulting net profit in each case. Ideally, I wish to be able to chose which indata to lock and which to vary, i.e. solution need to have certain flexibility.
NB: The calculations are not that simple, i.e. I cannot use a simple formula - I need to use the exising output cell(s) to feed data.
How do I do this?
The outcome should be basically two rows with a suitable number of columns (or the other way around, two columns in X number of rows). The table will then be used to produce illustrative graphs.
I guess I could hard code a table by simply enter data, but heck, that's not the way to use Excel!
way for my engineers to save a field ticket with a certain name based on data from a couple of cells in the worksheet. Re: Auto generate "Save As" filename from text and tried to use some code posted in the thread, but I an still not having any luck.
What I want to do is create an active X button when clicked on, would save the workbook to a certain folder. I want the name to look like this:
SO1!M3_SO1!M6_SO1!H2.xls
This is what I have so far:
Private Sub SaveMe()
ThisWorkbook.SaveAs Filename:="C:usersdefaultdesktop" & Range("SO1!M3").Value & Format(Range("SO1!M3").Value, "text") & ".xls"
End Sub

View 3 Replies View RelatedI have been given the following code and it works great. I now need to adapt it to the following scenario: In the attached sheet, the user has to select either, "Suburban" or "Squad" in row 5. If the user selects, "Suburban" I need this script to compare the values they enter in a given row to the value in column "B".
If the user selects, "Squad" I need this script to compare the values they enter in a given row to the value in column "C".
Look at row 48, for example. If the user enters, "Suburban" in cell D5 then the value they enter in cell D48 should equal "1". If it does not equal "1" then it should proceed with the adding of a comment. Conversely, if the user enters, "Squad" in cell D5 then the value the enter in cell D48 should equal "2". If it does not equal "2" then it should proceed with the adding of a comment.
I have a problem with a HUGE macro project I'm working on. The macro itself isn't huge, but it's being applied to about 10,000 files. The macro is updating information on three spreadsheets in each workbook, but the problem is that the password protection (and Macro in general) fails to unlock when the password was entered in UPPERCASE. So the password is "king" and/or "KING" depending on the sheet. There is no way of predicting which sheets will be caps and which will not, but it's frustrating when my macro stops every 5 files with an error because of a wrong password (even though it's always one of those two).
Is there an IF THEN statement or something that I can do so that the macro doesn't stall every 30 seconds to 2 minutes... I have 10,000 files to crawl through.
how to liberate only the sheets already opened by this user, even after he/she has closed the workbook? It means that when this user re-open the workbook, only the password for this step (workbook) and of course for the sheets still closed (not yet visited), will be requested...
There will be about 20 users, accessing the same file (at least 8 or 9 at the same time), and each one has a different level. For this reason the workbook is also protected: depending on the username and password, I'm trying let excel "knows" what sheet each user can open, without type a password again. trying to illustrating: (all users and password are added by me, using a MasterSheet)
user1 ----- already unprotected sheet9 ----- can open sheet1 to 9 (no password, even re-opening the workbook)
to open the sheet10, a username and a password are required
user2 ----- unprotected sheet3 ----- can open sheet1 to 3 (no password, even re-opening the workbook)
to open the sheet4, a username and a password are required
............. and so on.........
How would I write a marco that requires a password when a certain word in a drop down list is selected, bearing in mind that when this word is selected certain cells in the worksheet are no longer locked - in other words the certain cell can only changed by a specific person in the drop down list which when this person is selected a password is required.

View 3 Replies View RelatedI have been doing a lot of reading on the forums here on hiding tabs and passwords for my current project...and suffice to say I am completely...totally...stuck.
Basically, I have 11 different tabs that need to remain hidden until, the person clicks on a commandbutton which brings up a userform that asks for a password.
Now - I have it set up that the user prior to this stage chooses thier location and it populates a label1 field on the password request userform.
My biggest problem is this: I cannot seem to figure out how, in using a userform, to get the password to be recognized as TRUE....here is the
Private Sub TextBox1_Change()
a = UserForm12.TextBox1
If a "password" Then
MsgBox "Wrong Password"
Sheets("RatesII").Visible = xlSheetVeryHidden
End If
End Sub
Now, my idea is that once the correct password is used, the userform dissmisses itself, the correct sheet is activated and unhidden for viewing and the user goes about doing what they do on this sheet. I will also have a button on the sheet itself titled something like "Update" which will save the sheet, and re-hide it and call up the userform once again...something I am a little scetchy on at this time though I immagine I will figure it out.
I have made an integrated timesheet for everyone at work. Problem is, people will be funny-beggers, and want to password protect their workbooks.
I want to be able to prevent EVERYONE from creating passwords to protect their workbook.
My workbook contains a number of worksheets - currently nine. Each worksheet details a specific "business unit" for the company I work for. Using VB, is it possible for Excel to request a password upon opening the workbook? If so, the specific password input would determine the specific worksheet(s) that are available for viewing.

Is it possible to do a macro which automatically protect the sheets with the correct password.
I have attached a sample workbook the sheet "passwords" will have sheet names in first column and respective passwords in the second column.
I have recorded a macro and added this to a button on the document. I was wondering if it will be possible that each user who works on the document can use a specific password to unlock cells and autolock once document is saved. I have a seperate document that has the users and their specific passwords on.

However, the problem is at the end of this process we have protected the worksheet as well. This is not feasible for the process what I am working on.
how to apply different password without protecting worksheet.
The problem - there are multiple users, each one has its own excel file, but it has to be password protected. I assume there is a simple VBA script or something. I found something here - User name and password to open excel file . I guess I don't need it to be that complicated. I haven't gotten it to work yet, so I can't tell if it's what I need.
Also there is an Admin or whatever that has to view all of the users excel files in one excel file. Is this even possible?
how to create user logins and passwords for five users for one workbook. Also, preferrably to have a message to prompt for entering the user name and password at the first worksheet (e.g. the main page where there it is usually the company logo page) when the workbook is open.
E.g. there are five employees and we would like to create five different logins and passwords for them. So when they open the workbook, it would be the first sheet of the workbook to appear first and they would then be prompt to enter their username and password. If one of the employees leave the company, we can still quite easily change the name to the new employee.
I have an excel file with three worksheets in it. I can happily protect each sheet with a different password but what i want to be able to do is the following:
a. have a global administrator password for all the sheets - so i assume set the same password to protect the whole sheet
b. have individual passwords that only allow the user to insert rows and change data within restricted columns, i.e. can only edit columns A:Z and cannot manipulate any formulas within that range A:Z
I have excel 2010 if that makes any difference.
