I have a data list which needs to be updated by others on a shared drive. I want to protect the worksheet as there is other info on it (advancefilter from the main list). The problem is that the >>Data>>Form tool will open, but all the boxes necessary to update the list are greyed out (New, Delete etc.)
My other option is to create a macro to advance filter out the other data to another worksheet.
I want to create a simple form for employees to enter their number of hours worked for the day. Driver name, Start Time, Finish Time and date. I need this information to populate an excel spreadsheet but I don't want the employees to be able to view the data that is being put in. Also possibly throw an error if the same employee accidentally enters their information twice.

This tracker would have the data collection in a seperate excel worksheet using forms (embedded), where all of the information initially goes, then with the click of an "Add" button, it formats the information in the cells in the appropriate worksheet (ie: good data goes to the worksheet called "Good" and vice versa for "Bad"), clearing the data from the forms, and preparing for the next bit of information.

VBA code to get userform input from form to "Data" worksheet. Data starts at columns A3..AG3.

I've included a picture with in "red" comments.
View 8 Replies View RelatedI have created a form in VBA using txt boxes and cmd's. I want the abitility to edit the existing data on my excel worksheet using the form. Currently, I can add data, but not search through the existing data on the form.
I have been using the excel tips and it has been great, but I am stumped at this point. This is my first time to every post a message.
This is all taking place in vb6 and excel 2003.
I am making a userform that is activated once the user highlights a bit of spreadsheet and clicks a button on the command bar, here is what I want it to do:
1. (copy data from the spreadsheet
this is tricky because I am trying to have it be a conditional situation where the user highlights a place on the spreadsheet and whatever that place is at the moment, it will get copied to a variable on the form.
There are 8 fields to highlight and copy, two with info that wont be copied onto the new spreadsheet but will be used to update fields and make the filename.)
2. make a new spreadsheet:
a. the filename is made from cell values in the 'from' and 'to' columns and the date.
b. new spreadsheet needs to have a template section from a7:f7 that has 4 fields that will be filled in from the fields on the form.
c. copied data is to be moved from old spreadsheet to new spreadsheet to cell a8. There should be 6 columns that will be filled with data.
3. on the form there will be a browse button to save the file in a location specified by user and 'last saved location' name should be saved to a textbox.
I read about a browse button here that I would like to use, but I have to adapt it so it can be used in the 'browse' button. [url]
I dont even know if it is possible to copy a user-specified range. It seems that it should be, because when a user highlights an area, that area is being held in memory as a position... I tried passing these values to another sheet but it wasnt successful. I tried to dim 'selection' as string and pass it into a variable, but I am new to variables and this project is a big experience for me in vb.
I also am still learning about how to make values in a field pass to another field on a spreadsheet.
I have an Excel worksheet with potentially 1000+ rows of data.
Create a way where I select something (a macro button ?) for that individual row of Worksheet1 -- and it takes selected cell data from that row and inserts it into specified cells in another worksheet (Worksheet2) within that same workbook.
Also, this Excel data (of Worksheet1) will be sorted every week - so the ?macro button? that is used needs to follow the same row when a sort is performed.
I can do this by creating a macro button, but would have to create an individual macro button for every individual row of data. (That's 1000+ macro buttons to create !?!)
Is there better way of doing this with a macro button OR is there a completely different/better way to accomplish the same thing ?
One of my work colleagues need to add a worksheet to an existing Excel Spreadsheet which has VBA behind it, but the worksheet is password protected. The developer who wrote the application has now left, so we have no idea what the password is. Is there anyway of getting round it, like cracking into the spreadsheet to find out the password, or another way?
View 2 Replies View RelatedI am trying to create a form to use as a golf tracker. I basically have created a scorecard where I input the date, score, fairways in regulation, greens in regulation and putts. I want to be able to put that information just like if it was a scorecard and then have a button that says submit. Then that information is output into individual sheets (i.e. one for scores, one for fairways, one for greens and one for putts).
I have this workbook to keep track of current and new work for the team - each individual inputs information on their own tab.
In turn, the current information is displayed on a summary page so we can all see who's doing what.
I want to protect that summary page and its formulas from accidental amendment.
However, while the summary page (when unprotected) updates as soon as someone enters new information on their own tab, the summary page won't update when I have it protected.
Is there any way of doing this - preferably without VBA as it's a work situation and the employer doesn't like VBA code running?
I want to run a macro in a worksheet which is proteced.
It's a simple macro which erases the content in (some) cells, nothing more. Even those celles are formatted as unlocked the macro fails.
I have the following code which works fine when Sheet1 is unprotected (The code is placed in Sheet3)
however if I protect sheet1 then the code does not work
I have tried it with
Code:
ActiveSheet.Unprotect
Code:
ActiveSheet.Protect
it still will not work on Sheet1
here is the code
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
Application.ScreenUpdating = False
On Error GoTo Handler
With Sheet1.Range("B6:B10045")
[Code] ....
I have a protected worksheet where I allow all users of the worksheet to filter yet when I filter, Excel gives a run time error 1004 - you cannot use this command in a protected worksheet. Could someone let me know what am I doing wrong?
View 9 Replies View RelatedI've built a workbook using Excel 2000 that uses several combo boxes. When I try to protect the workbook the combo boxes become locked, even when I have done FORMAT CONTROL / PROTECTION and unticked the LOCKED box. Is this normal?. I also have data validation cells and they work fine if I unlock them and Protect the workbook. As a result, I am thinking of converting the combo boxes to data validation cells, but should I even need to do this

I'm missing something in my UserForm initialization code. If I fill the form out once and click 'OK' (run the code to put the form data into a sheet), when I go back into the form all the old info is still there. If I then click 'Cancel' (Unload Me) and reopen the form, the old data is cleared out. What am I missing to make it clear it out the first time?
View 2 Replies View RelatedI'm having trouble trying to come up with a way to insert data fields into a spreadsheet form. I have a travel authorization form that I would like to have automatically fill in the required fields based on typing in a name. i.e. I would type in an employees name, and it would automatically fill-in the correct address, etc for that employee. I have attached a spreadsheet that contains one sheet as the form, and another sheet containing the employee data. I know nothing about VBA, but I have a feeling that is where I need to go.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI am needing to create a form that exports data (a quote) to an Excel Db (table) and is then able to recall the data back into the form. (the default form in excel does this and I want to copy that.)
Once the data is called back in, I can then export it to another Table to show that the quote has been approved and will be used.
I am having trouble with the VBA coding that copies the inputted quote in Cell C2 (the reference for the quote number) of the "Form" sheet and looks it up in the "Database" sheet. I have tried several variations of code, but nothing works so far.

I have a workbook that has worksheeets for every day of the month. The data in the worksheet consists of columns (employee #, name, clock in/out times, and break penalty).
What I am trying to do is create another worksheet that searches all the other worksheets for a "yes" in the "break penalty" column and then create a list of all the employees that received a break penalty for the entire month. I would like this to be able to auto populate throughout the month as data is entered and not have to use a filter every time I want to compile this list.

I have a Database and user form, in the user form i have a field named “Vehicle No” this is a combo box from which a user needs to select the Vehicle numbers, and all these are working fine now, I need your help in the following:
When user selects the second field named "Select Vendor name" i need a pop up window which shows all the Vehicles belongs to the vendor which they have selected, and with the popup window user selects the vehicle number then the Vehicle number combo box should be filled.
Currently users have to select by scrolling through Combo box which takes long time and difficult to find by scrolling.
What if you forgot the password in a protected sheet? is there a way to unlock it?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have created a table where the first 6 columns are data entry and the next 6 columns are formulas to give desired results.
I have made all the data entry cells unlocked and the rest of the spreadsheet locked (cells with formulas etc.)
I would like to be able to insert rows to the protect sheet which I have managed to achieve but when I insert the row the formulas do not update in the row.
I was able to create a macro that allows a user to unhide rows in a protected worksheet without unprotecting the other locked fields (see below). My question is: I want to add to this command so that 1 row can not be "unhidden" if the previous row is still hidden. For example, row 25 can not be unhidden if row 24 is still hidden.
Macro command used:
Private Sub Commandbutton4_Click()
Sub Hide_Rows2h()
ActiveSheet.Unprotect Password:="xxx"
Rows("25").Hidden = Not Rows("25").Hidden
ActiveSheet.Protect Password:="xxx"
I have A TABLE (Named Table1) and some columns filled by formula. (Like E,F,G,H columns) When I protect the worksheet E,F,G,H columns are locked, but A,B,C,D columns are UNLOCKED. When is sheet PROTECTED , If I add a row bottom of Table1, does NOT automatically fill the E,F,G,H columns and Table1 range does not expanding. But, if UNPROTECTED, it's OK. when add a row bottom of Table1, automatically fill all columns with formula and table range is expanding aotomatically with new row.
When sheet is PROTECTED , How can I allow, to add a row and aouto fill all columns like unprotected.
And I want to protect sheet in any case, after allowing to add row.
I need a macro code to do this.
I have (several) worksheets that have protection enabled. I have unlocked all the cells that users need access to and locked all the column and row headers/labels.
When I enabled protection on the sheets, the ability to add comments was taken away.
Is there a way to add comments to an UNLOCKED cell in a PROTECTED worksheet?
I have the following VBA in my spreadsheet.
Code:
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Excel.Range)
ActiveSheet.Unprotect ("kellyz")
If Intersect(Target, Columns("o:o")) Is Nothing Then Exit Sub
For Each C In Intersect(Target, Columns("O:O"))
[Code] ......
As soon as i type anything in the columns, my sheet is unprotected. I need the sheet protected so that the users can not change my formulas.
I have a protected worksheet that from time to time I need to insert a new row and copy a specific range of cells that are with formulae (protected) to the newly inserted row. For a better idea of what I want to achieve, a snapshot of the worksheet is attached.

I have incorporated print/print-preview command buttons/VBA into a workbook with protected sheets. To enable these command buttons to function when the relevant sheet is protected, I have had to add VBA code to unprotect the sheet before generating the print preview, and then to protect it again afterwards. However, the code I have used (see below) prompts the user to enter the protection password, is there any code I can use where I can write the password into the code itself to unprotect the worksheet without the using having to enter the password?
