I have a workbook in which i do not want the end user to be able to drag and drop cells. I noticed that when I set this in the Excel options to disallow this, it is local to the machine. Is there a way I can prevent others from dragging and dropping cells, through vba or other means, without changing the users local machine settings? I also need to prevent CUT and pasting of cells. I also need to leave the cells un-protected, becuase COPY and paste is ok, as it doesnt affect the formulas that refer to the cell. The worksheet and workbook are both protected.

I would like to disable cut/copy/paste and maybe delete inside a worksheet. Reading earlier threads on this subject provided the code to put in the ThisWorkbook module, where it works great for all my worksheets. However, there is one worksheet where it is necessary to have copy/paste, either with control c or right click/copy. Here is part of that code provided by Tom Urtis:
Private Sub Workbook_Activate()
Application.CutCopyMode = False
Application.OnKey "^c", ""
Application.CellDragAndDrop = False
End Sub
What do I replace Application with to work on just the worksheet level?

I have seen all the past questions and answers on this subject but mine has a little twist to it.
I only want 1 sheet in 12 to disable CUTTING AND PASTING but I want the user to be able to COPY and PASTE VALUES ONLY in this sheet.
Is there a macro for this?
it was possible to disable pasting in an Excel workbook. He didn't want Copy disabled, as he needed to paste data out of this tool into other workbooks, but just wanted Paste and Paste Special disabled while viewing this particular workbook.
Public Sub TogglePaste(booPaste As Boolean)
Dim cmb As CommandBar, cbc As CommandBarControl, cbp As CommandBarPopup
Dim cbpEdit As CommandBarPopup, cbcPaste As CommandBarControl
Set cmb = Application.CommandBars(1)
For Each cbp In cmb.Controls
If cbp.ID = 30003 Then Set cbpEdit = cbp
Next cbp
For Each cbc In cbpEdit.Controls
If cbc.ID = 22 Or cbc.ID = 755 Then
Set cbcPaste = cbc
cbcPaste.Enabled = booPaste
End If............................
I need to be able to prevent any user from cutting and pasting data in one of my spreadsheets. I have protected it all, removed cut and paste from the options- edit tab, but you can still cut and paste with the right mouse shortcut key.
How do I stop this from being available?
Which code is "better" to disable D&D, C&P....
Private Sub Workbook_Activate()
Application.CutCopyMode = False
Application.OnKey "^c", ""
Application.CellDragAndDrop = False
End Sub
Private Sub Workbook_Deactivate()
[Code] .......
OR This one:
Option Explicit
Private Sub Workbook_Activate()
With Application
.CutCopyMode = False
.CellDragAndDrop = False
[Code] ........
I noltice that one uses "Option Explicit" and one doesn't, one seems to be longer than the other, but when I tested both, they both seem to do the same thing. I did notice that neither one of them prevents a "paste" into the worksheet when something is copied from an outside source, but that is not a concern right now!!!
I'm using 2003.
1. Copy cells B5 to V-First blank row in Strength Tests worksheet
2. Paste cells into Racks worksheet in cell C5
3. Change font size to 6
4. Sort by Column T descending then by Column C ascending
5. Copy one row (A5-W5 (1Rx23C)) from Racks worksheet
6. Paste row into M1 worksheet in cell D4
7. Print M1
8. Drop down one row on the Racks worksheet
9. Repeat steps 5-8 until there's a blank row.
How can I disable the paste function on an Excel worksheet, including drag and drop?
Preferably I still want to retain the ability to copy.
In the Dec 2005 Ozgrid newsletter there is some sample code to disable commandbar controls. The example code crashes when it trys to disable the copy button on the Clipboard menu (Excel 2000) and ONLY the clip board menu. All others are fine.
'Disable all Copy menus
For Each oCtrl In Application.CommandBars.FindControls(ID:=19)
oCtrl.Enabled = False
Next oCtrl
Is it possible to disable the ability to right click on a tab and select "move or copy"?
I've already disabled the Edit->Move or Copy Sheet... feature on the menu.
I'm sending a file to users that I don't want them to print. The workbook itself has the print function password protected and copy/paste disabled. Any help would be appreciated.
To clarify I already have the printing part solved, but I don't want them to be able to move or copy the tab or tabs to a new workbook and print from there.
This macro works fine on my machine but not with other users:
This should copy/paste certain cells then paste 3 sheets into a new work book.
ON other computers it seems to paste in a picture? works OK for me?

I would like to implement specific cell ranges from two specific worksheets each within 33 workbooks (which all have several tabs) into a summary page in a separate workbook.
The cell ranges are going across my spreadsheet in rows and I would like for them to transpose into a columns depending on the data which I have separated by catergory on the summary page. They are all on the same location in each workbook which is separated by country. The cell ranges are E26:P37 and I would like to transpose them and have them put below eachother without overwriting for my format on the summary page, how I can put this together in a macro?
Attached is my code, pay attention to the bold part. I want the sourceSheet to be copied as a sheet and pasted in the targetSheet (the Sheet2 of "NewBook") but I want it pasted asvalues. Here is the specific part which needs to be looked at...and below is the full code.
VB:
Set sourceBook = Application.Workbooks.Open(sourceFilename)
Set sourceSheet = sourceBook.Sheets("Current")
Set targetSheet = NewBook.Sheets("Sheet2")
[Code].....
copy/paste Every Sheet Single ( P Column ) and Paste to Notepad and take P1 As file name for note pad.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have one workbook that needs two macros.
On the "Complete Backlog" tab of my workbook, I want users to enter in the requested information based on the column header. Then I would like a Macro attached to a button that says "Refresh" that the user would click after they have entered in all of the information. This macro should look in Column M (WIP Status) and if any of the cells say "Close", it should Cut the entire row from the spreadsheet(Ex. A2:M2) and Paste it into the speadsheet titled "Closed Jobs".
This is so that as jobs are closed/finished, they are removed and stored on a separate sheet. The items would have to be pasted so that it pastes into the next available row - not just on top of each other.
I also need another macro that i can put into a button that doesn't "delete" a row from the sheet, but just copies over to another sheet - so that there are two instances in the workbook.
If would look something like: If a cell in "Column G / Director" of the "Complete Backlog" speadsheet is equal to "Snodgress" then copy columns A-L of the same row to the spreadsheet titled "Snodgress" - of course skipping down the rows to the next blank row.
.....is equal to "Herr" copy row to "Herr" spreadsheet.
....is equal to "McCormick" copy row to "McCormick" spreadsheet.
and so on.

How would you prevent the copy/paste of cells that have comments?
Also, how would you allow cells with comments to be copied and pasted without pasting the comments?
I also have an aside question about the forum advanced search. When searching for multiple search words, how would you type the search to include all words, for example, "prevent" & "paste" & "comments".
I want to copy and paste from one sheet to another based on column a using a macro copy button.
E.g. if column a value = apple then copy that row into the apple sheet.
I want this macro to find in this case "406" in column A which is at the very end of the last block of 160 rows of information.
I then want it to move up 159 rows and copy 160 rows of information underneath the last block of information.
i.e.go to A5280 , then go to a5121, copy rows 5121:5280 to 5281.
It falls over on the very last line of code I can see A5281 selected but it won't paste....
The following sub will look in the file ("FY09 SOF"), in column "A", search for the strings that begin with "2109", "3009", or ends in "-1", and copy the entire row. It will then paste these in the file ("FY09 PR Log Blank").
I have found that in the file ("FY09 SOF"), if things are filtered in any row, it will not copy those necessary items.
The data filter is on row 13 of each sheet. Is there a way of fixing this? (i.e. having the macros select "all" on the filter before copying the sheet? There are 60 sheets so a macros will be necessary.
Sub get_data()
Dim wb As Workbook, wbDest As Workbook
Dim ws As Worksheet, wsDest As Worksheet
Dim lngCalc As Long
Dim FoundCells As Range
Dim FoundCell As Range
Set wb = Workbooks("FY09 SOF")
Set wbDest = Workbooks("FY09 PR Log Blank")
Set wsDest = wbDest.Worksheets("Paste all here, then sort")
With Application
.ScreenUpdating = False
lngCalc = .Calculation
.Calculation = xlCalculationManual
End With
For Each ws In wb.Worksheets.............................
I've received an Excel file with the below macro. However, I've made changes in the original file and therefore, the macro isn't working anymore except if I copy paste special the value instead of simply copying it. I would need to change the macro accordingly.
The macro is the following :
Sub CCtosheetwithoutformat()

I currently have a macro that outputs data to a bulletin-board type table in my worksheet. At the moment, what happens is that the macro copies the entire table down one row using copy/paste, then prints a new line of data to the top row of the table.
This works great because it is very fast and because I only have to format each line once--the formats just get copied down every time a new line of data is added.
My problem is that while this program is running, I am unable to use copy and paste in windows, because the copy/pasting from the macro overwrites the windows clipboard.
Is there a way for me to "copy" formats from 1 range to another range of equal size without actually using copy/paste? I know this can be done with values (eg. range("B2:B4").value = range("A2:A4").value), but I can't get it to work with any sort of formatting.
