Button To Unlock & Unhide All Columns
Apr 14, 2008
I have a sheet that upon opening a macro runs to hide a selection of columns based on cell containing certain words (see here).
I now also require the workbook to be protected so that the hidden columns (which Im sure are locked as default when hidden) are locked as are columns N & S. Now, I know I can do this by protecting the sheet and unprotecting the columns I require (ie N & S - with the hidden cells remaining locked anyway).
The issue is, every time the workbook is opened this protection must be in place.
However, I require a button, which could simply reside in A1, that when pressed, will unhide and unlocked all cells. - This is needed as its vital I can easily copy rows to another sheet (and delete from existing sheet) as and when required.
if possible, re-pressing the button would hide and proetct the worksheet however this is not too significant as long as when I close and open the workbook everything is hidden and protected as specified above.
There is no need to password protect anything.

I'm looking to make a simple button that would hide a given range of columns.
This is the simplest I could find:
VB:
Sub button1()
Columns("AD:AE").EntireColumn.Hidden = Not Columns("AD:AE").EntireColumn.Hidden
End Sub
Although this works nicely, there was another way to do it (looks more ergonomic and doesn't take up spreadsheet space). Here's a screenshot of what I mean: ColumnHide.gif

Need a macro for each button.
The sheet will be protected with a password (in the future, users will have varied access privileges).
Column A is designated as the "Button" Column.
There are 5 buttons here. Each representing the area on the sheet that needs to be viewed. Once the button is pressed, it takes you to that section of the sheet. At this time, I have designated each column area as:
a-z
aa-az
ba-bz
ca-cz
da-dz
I have tried this formula with opening tabs, but this won't work.

I'm trying to record a macro which will hide and unhide columns K:P of data, but I only want one button. I know how to do this to produce one button for hiding and another for unhiding...but I want one combined button.
How to use vba, how I do this via the macro recorder?

I am trying to create a very large spreadsheet and i have got everything organized, but for easy viewing i want to have a toggle button that hides and un-hides certain sets of the columns (ie. Press down and it hides columns "B-F", "H-J", and "M-O".... then on depress it shows all the information again)
I have got some of the coding down, but am only able to get it to hide one set at a time, not all the sets. Can anyone help me out and let me know how i tell it to run multiple commands from the one press? here is the code i have already: ...

I have an lock button to lock a worksheet, and a unlock button to unlock the same worksheet.
The unlock button though gives me an error when I don t set the password correct or not at all.
My code is like that
Sub UnlockSheet()
'
' Unlock Sheet Makro
'
'
ActiveSheet.Unprotect
End Sub
I am sure that is very simple for you guys here but for me a problem I can not figure out yet why.

Using Excel 2007, I figured out how to insert a Toggle Button and program it to hide or unhide my columns F and G (which show cost data for products we sell) depending on the state of the button.
What I'd like to add to the button is text and functionality as follows:
- Columns F and G are shown, Toggle button IS NOT depressed and the button says "Hide Cost"
- Columns F and G are hidden, Toggle Button IS depressed and the button says "Show Cost"
I figured out how to change the text on the button, but can't figure out how to change it based on the button state. I know there has to be a way to do this.

I have a command button that hides rows based on zero value in Col B then a 2nd btn to unhide those rows. The challenge is that as I want this code for several workbooks that will have data of varying row lengths & not all the zero values will be in the exact same place for each workbook or each month. Having done a little research on the Board (& googled) I have not found an answer to my challenge. So I am sure someone will point me in the right direction -
Private Sub CommandButton1_Click()
BeginRow = 3
EndRow = ActiveSheet.UsedRange.Rows.Count
ChkCol = 2
Range("B3:B" & EndRow).EntireRow.Hidden = True
For RowCnt = BeginRow To EndRow
If Cells(RowCnt, ChkCol).Value 0 Then
Cells(RowCnt, ChkCol).EntireRow.Hidden = False
End If
Next RowCnt
Range("A2").Activate................................

I am creating a disclaimer in one of my sheets.
Cell I15 contains 'Are you a resident for tax purposes?' Cell N15 has the data validation list of Yes or No.
Then I have a button below which covers rows18, 19 and 20.
Is there a way I can have this button hidden until Cell N15 = Yes?

What the code does is, when the command button is clicked, if any of the validation list in a particular range is equal to"Select_Product.." or "Select Feature", then hide those rows.
Also, is there a way to toggle hide and unhide rows using one command button. I would like the code to not only hide the rows but when clicked again, it'll unhide it. Is this possible?
Private Sub CommandButton1_Click()
Dim c As Range
Dim d As Range
Dim myRange As Range
Dim featureRange As Range

The workbook contains 5 worksheets, 4 of which will unhidden just fine; the remaining worksheet ("AnnualBudget" refuses to unhide columns AD to IV. Of course, this is the sheet that contains data in those hidden cells and I cannot get to the data. The sheet is unprotected and all freeze panes removed.
I have copied this sheet to a new sheet in the same workbook:
If I copy only formulas and number formats, the new sheet has all columns unhidden. If I copy formats, I have the same issue with the new worksheet. It’s like these columns are forever locked from view.
FYI I am using Excel 2007 with a 2003 compatability worksheet
A copy of the workbook is attached. Any idea what’s happening?

I've come across a spreadsheet where certain rows and columns (typically top rows or left columns) are hidden; however, there's no way to unhide them (the unhide function is grayed out) and it doesn't seem to be protected or no visible macros/vba on the file.

I have a spreadsheet that has 28 columns for time entries. Typically only the first 12 columns are used, so I would like to hide the remaining 16 columns (which makes the spreadsheet much more user-friendly). It would probably be nearly impossible to teach all of them how to Unhide the remaining columns (and re-Hide), plus I would like to use the full-screen function when employees enter thier times. I would like to use a form control in the column heading so that when the employees 'check' it, it will Unhide and then re-Hide the columns. Any way to do this? Seems like a VB thing to me (out of my league, but would be happy to add one in!).

I have on sheet1 a number (72 at the moment) of Form CheckBoxes.
In simple terms: I would like a macro to look at each CheckBox and remember its state (Checked or Unchecked)
Then, go through and Check All checkboxes
Call MyMacro
Once MyMacro is complete (Filtering & Printing)
Revert the checkboxes to their original state.
The purpose of the checkboxes:
When Checked column on sheet2 is UnHidden
When UnChecked column on sheet2 is Hidden
Or, UnHide All columns on sheet2, run MyMacro, then "re-hide" the columns that were previously hidden.

The code below if I run once Hide the Range("H:FV,GG:IV") and shows the Range("A:G, FW:GF") And if I run it again Unhide the Range("H:FV,GG:IV") And Show all columns
Code:
Sub Hide_Unhide()Range("H:FV,GG:IV").Select
If Selection.EntireColumn.Hidden = True Then
Range("H:FV,GG:IV").EntireColumn.Hidden = False
Else
Range("H:FV,GG:IV").Select
If Selection.EntireColumn.Hidden = False Then
Range("H:FV,GG:IV").EntireColumn.Hidden = True
End If
End If
Range("A1").Select
End Sub
Above code is working with 2 cases now is it possible to add 3rd case Hide Or Unhide Range("H:GG,GI:HJ,HO:IV") in the same code, and shows the Range("A:G, GH, HK:HN")
Resume: my request
Step1-if I run macro First time it must Hide Range("H:FV,GG:IV") and shows the Range("A:G, FW:GF")
Step2-If I run macro Second time it must Hide Range("H:GG,GI:HJ,HO:IV") and shows the Range("A:G, GH, HK:HN")
Step3-if I run macro third time it must show all columns
And repeat same cycle all time Step 1 to 2, Step2 to 3 and Step3 to 1

I have a worksheet with a fair amount of data. It is split into two parts: the main part is a table with data in columns D to AR while the other part is simply a list with checkboxes against each item. I have set things up so that when a checkbox is ticked against an item in the list, then a 2 appears in row 2 above the relevant column in the main table; if the checkbox is unticked then a 2 appears above the relevant column.
What I seek is a macro that will hide all columns that do not have the associated item ticked; in other words, I want columns to be hidden if there is a 1 in the relevant cell in Row 2 (and visible if there is a 2 there).
I have used the following code (obtained from this forum), but it doesn't work as expected. When I select the items, the cells in Row 2 react as expected, but the hiding and unhiding only occurs when I go to another Worksheet and then return to the Worksheet where the data is. Obviously I want the macro to work immediately I tick or untick a checkbox. What is wrong with the code I have used?
Private Sub Worksheet_Activate()
Call HideCols
End SubSub

I need to perform an action (unhide all columns) whenever I switch to a different worksheet.
Detail: I have a file with 2 tabs (worksheets). Tab 1 contains daily data, and when people are done with the current week they group and hide the columns for that week. This allows them to only view the new week and do an easy copy/paste into other applications. Tab 2 totals up the daily data from Tab 1 and shows monthly totals. The problem is that when they hide Tab 1 columns for past days, the formulas in Tab 2 don't "find" that hidden data. I would like to write a basic code that unhides all Tab 1 columns when I switch to Tab 2 so the formulas on Tab 2 reflect accurate totals. My thought is that it would be Worksheet code on Tab 1 using "Deactivate". I've tried to piece together different bits of code but can't get anything to work properly. I don't want them to have to run a macro or click a button, I'd like it to be automated when they switch tabs.
