Clear All Unprotected Cells?

Jul 25, 2014

I have a button, and I need a Macro that will cause it to clear all unprotected cells. I think I can figure out how to get it to clear an individual cell, and I suppose I could enter every cell I want cleared individually...but that might take awhile.

Is there a way to set up a Macro that will delete the contents of every unprotected cell? I guess I haven't tried it yet - if I protect the cells, will it not delete those? Also, there is a small image - I don't want that deleted either.

Clearing Unprotected Cells

Jul 19, 2002

I have a spreadsheet that has I have protected. On this sheet I have a button labeled Reset Form. When you click the button it it goes to each Unprotected Cell and deltes the contents. I created this by starting the macro and then tabbing to each and every cell and deleteing the contents I then ended the macro...

Is there a code that I can use for to clear all unprotected cells as opposed to creating the macro manually?

Macro To Clear Certain Cells In Row If First Cells Date Is In The Past

Apr 9, 2014

I would like to run a macro that would check if the date in the first cell of row is in the past.

If yes, then it would clear contents of cell in B,C,F,I,L of the same row (PLAN + SHIFTS). Or even better it would set them to 0 (zero).

Then it would hide the entire row. Is this even possible?

Please see the example: Excel.JPG

Clear Contents Of All Unlocked Cells (many Are Merged Cells

May 28, 2009

I am looking for a code that will clear all of my unlocked cell in sheet 1. That is not a problem but since many of the cells are merged I know it keeps throwing me an error saying cannot change contents of merged cells or something like that. Does anyone know how to get around this without unmerging the cells. I saw a code to unmerge all of the cells on a sheet but I really don't want to do this as I already have worked around most of my problems with the merged cells.

Clear #VALUE! From Cells?

Apr 16, 2009

I am getting a #VALUE! error in one of my cells. I know it is because my worksheet is missing information to complete the formula. The information will be inputted periodically in the worksheet (lets call it worksheet number one). But, I have the results of cells in worksheet one that are tied to worksheet number two. Worksheet number two is getting the #VALUE! also until worksheet number one is completed (periodically).

But, in worksheet number two, I have an auto sum that adds up the results from worksheet one so I am getting the same #VALUE! error on the auto sum because only a few worksheet from worksheet one are complete. Is there anyway to clear the #VALUE! and get a number in the auto sum even if only a few worksheets from worksheet number one are inputted?

Unprotected Sheet Code Not Working?

Jun 9, 2014

I'm currently using a vba script to unprotect all of my worksheets within my workbook in order to refresh the pivots and then protect them again once the pivots are completed, but there are two worksheets I would like to remain unprotected in order for users to be able to edit them after the pivots have been refreshed. Now I've tried adding a sub code in order to unprotect one of the sheets as a test to see if it will allow me to edit the worksheet after I update the pivots. Unfortunately the coding isn't working, and the worksheet is still remaining in protect mode. Here's the code I am using to protect the worksheets when refreshing the pivot as well as the code I am attempting to use in order to unprotect the one worksheet.

Apr 16, 2014

I have a spreadsheet with a large table of data (values only no formulas). Whoever programmed it, they decided that cells with irrelevant entries should display three dots, i.e. "...". Problem is now need to clear these cells (so they are truly blank) but some of them have been auto-corrected in to ellipses and some have not. I wrote the following code:

[Code] .....

This is fine for the three dots that are just three dots, but for the ones that were auto-corrected to ellipses it doesn't work. How do I amend the code so that it clears the cells that are three dots and the ellipses too?

Clear Non-contiguous Cells

Jul 23, 2007

Am looking for routine that can be used to delete the contents of cells from multiple, non-contiguous cells throughout a single worksheet. I would like to place a "button" or some form of toggle-switch on the worksheet that will clear all entries at once. I see a thread "Macro Deleting Wrong Cells" that references a VBA sub-routine called "DelCells". I happen to be running Excel 2007 and am still adjusting to the new menu "structure" :-)
