I know you can disable date reconigtion if importing data from the web but is this possible using copy/paste ? please help as this is driving me nuts. Im using excel 2007.
View 9 Replieseffectively disable ALL macros associated with a workbook if it's opened after an "expiration date" that's buried on a very hidden sheet.
I think I can figure out how to render the entire workbook useless after the expiration date, but I need to retain all formatting, underlying data and formulas so that macros can be re-enabled if I change the expiration date.
I am working as a private consultant for a company, and have put together a series of Excel applications, producing charts and providing some statistical guidelines. I will move on from here soon, and will take my work with me. I want to leave this product with the company, but it will become obsolete without some formula maintenance. Therefore, I would like to be able to have the program basically stop working at a future date. I don't really care if it freezes up, deletes itself or implodes. If not I am also afraid many copies of this program will be made and sent to others in my small community.

Is there a way to disable 'Save as PDF or XPS' with the macro? I have tried disabling 'Save as' with the below VBA code but it does not disable 'Save as PDF or XPS'.
VB:
Private Sub Workbook_BeforeSave(ByVal SaveAsUI As Boolean, Cancel As Boolean)
If SaveAsUI Then
MsgBox "Save As is disabled", vbInformation
Cancel = True
End If
End Sub
Also I have a macro which saves the excel report in a PDF format with 'Save as PDF or XPS' utility. I would like to enable 'Save as PDF or XPS' when this macro is started and again disable 'Save as PDF or XPS' when this macro stops.
I have a button on excel form. I need to disable it once user has clicked on it.

Excel 2003 - VBA - How do you detect when a row has been deleted in VBA? Better yet, how do you detect when a row is about to be deleted? I also would like to know the row number. I do not see an event handler that will inform me of the "Delete" event.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI am looking for a way that I can ensure that Zero Values are never shown, either when you open a new workbook or open a new window.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI've got an excel sheet from a guy at work who decided to lock the entire document down so I can't do anything with it. Virtually all the ribbon options are greyed out, there isn't anything locking it in the code, I've tried checking the save as "read-only" option and it's not there. How I can actually save this is editable? I've looked in windows explorer and it's not read-only in there either. I tried save-as and even tried making it an XLS instead of an XLSM and it still won't let me edit it
View 1 Replies View RelatedI found this great code on this forum to disable copy/paste.
I would like to also disable ClearContents..
I can gather from the code that I just need to add a line similar to
EnableControl 755, False ' pastespecial
but change the # for the clearcontents command. But How can I find that number?
Sub DisableCopyCutAndPaste()
EnableControl 21, False ' cut
EnableControl 19, False ' copy
EnableControl 22, False ' paste

Need code or way of disabling the Right Click feature in Excel? I think you can change it in the computer settings but I only want to disable it for a particular workbook so I am hoping there is a VBA Code that will tell the user "Right Click Not Allowed, Please use Cut and Paste or Ctrl +V and Ctrl +C"
I am sure this can be done - I found a similar thread but in a different context to what I need.
I have a user of a workbook who insists on putting irritating red cornered comments in cells, rather than using the handy (and rather large) comments field I put in, especially for her.
i know in VB6 i could disable the X in the corner so someone can't X out of my form, and i see that's not an option in VBA.
So how can i stop the form from terminating when the user clicks that? i want them to be forced to use one of my buttons to close out and finish.
i tried adding something simple like Exit Sub to the Userform_Terminate() sub, but nothing. i can make code run when they click that, but i can't stop it from closing. what to do?
also, the form is being called by macro that does alot of other stuff before and after the form, so just opening a new instance of the form won't help unless you can stop my other code from continueing until the form is actually done...
I just want to know if there is anyway to disable the help feature in Microsoft Excel?
I have to administer some exams.
I have a sheet with a number of checkboxes, and I need to conditionally enable/disable some of them.
For example, if the user checks Box1, then the question for Box2 becomes relevant and Box2 becomes available. If Box1 is unchecked, Box2 needs to be unchecked and disabled.
I want to disable the X button on the top right hand corner in excel, but still allow the user with the option of closing the workbook via File and then scrolling down to EXIT. (Not close). I have disabled most of the functions in the Menu bar Close being one of them.
So only Exit is now enabled. When I click on the X it give me the following message as shown below advising me to go to the File menu to Exit, this bit I am happy with. However this is were my problem begins, when I go to File and Exit I get the same message as below and can not exit the application.
Private Sub Workbook_BeforeClose(Cancel As Boolean)
Cancel = True
MsgBox "Please select EXIT from the File Menu.", vbCritical, "Cannot Close"
End Sub

View 3 Replies View RelatedI have several cells in a column for the user to input data, and then a "submit" button. It is a very basic sheet to take user input and store it on another sheet and then manipulate(pivot) and display(graphs) on respective sheets.
Is it possible to remove gridlines and disable all cells on the input sheet except for those that take input, currently validation cells.
