How To Disable Read Only
Jul 10, 2013I'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

Apr 9, 2008Is there a way to remove the option to open a file as read only when the file is already open by another user? Ideally when a user tries to open a file that is already in use they would get a message to that effect and the only option at that point would be for them to select "notify" when file is available.

May 27, 2007The xls file I have written is used by multiple users at the same time. None of them can actually change the file - it opens data files and imports the data it needs then writes back any changes to the data to those files.
So the "read-only" option that my users see is of no importance to them - can this be bypassed somehow?

Disable Update Links Message
Nov 15, 2006I have tried using the following in the ThisWorkbook Module which does not seem to work because it appears the "Update Links" message fires before the Open Event
Private Sub Workbook_Open()
Application.AskToUpdateLinks = False
End Sub
I know it is possible to turn it off manually through Tools-Options but have 30 users and do not want them seeing the "Update Links" message if possible to turn it off.

View 5 Replies View RelatedOpen Message Box Or Disable Option On Open
Mar 30, 2007how to make a MsgBox open anytime a cell in Column A was double-clicked--and the content of the MsgBox was from the cell in the same row in column Z. I've now realized the double-clicking isn't an ideal solution, as it's easy to click in another cell and mess up all the formulas.
(1) Code that deactivates the "edit directly in cell" option when the workbook is opened.
(2) Code that opens the MsgBox when a cell in Column A is clicked just once (or similarly less fool-proof than double-clicking or right-clicking).

File May Be Read-Only, Or You May Be Trying To Access A Read-Only Location
Jan 4, 2007I'm trying to open a file on a network drive...but I'm getting the following error message when it opens: "This file may be read-only, or you may be trying to access a read-only location. Or the server the document is stored on may not be responding." Now, the file itself has no rights restrictions and is not read only. It doesn't appear to be locked.
Now, there are other Excel files in the same directory which I could open fine; however, the Excel documents having the above problem all have a little black icon "appears to be a padlock" (image attached) at the bottom left hand side of the Excel file icon. I tried the following:
- Renaming
- Converting to a different file format (didn't work, it won't let me)
- Opening in notepad...etc doesn't work.
This file is dated back in 2004...do you think it's corrupt? Is there anything i can do to open or recover this?

Oct 25, 2011Simply stated:
Range("A5") = Qty
Range("A6") = Cost
Range("A7") = Cost * Qty
In the UserForm:
TextBox1 fills Qty range
TextBox2 fills Cost range
I'd like to have TextBox3 to show the result on Range("A7"). This box would not be enabled, therefore is not clickable or Tab accessible.
I tried
Private Sub TextBox3_Change()
TextBox3.Value = CStr(Range("A7").Value)
TextBox3.Text = Format(TextBox3.Text, "Currency")
End Sub
but that does not do it.

Is Workbook Read Only
Dec 29, 2006For a couple of reasons I have had to take a workbook off of a local machine and place it on the network so others can access it. I cannot share the workbook because of the macro's and protection on it. At any one time only one person should have full control of workbook. The others only need read only access. I won't go into the whole deal but I was hoping there was a way on startup to detect if the workbook is in read only mode or not (Other than the basic notifications and indications that excel gives as many users either ignore or do not understand them). If so I would like a big message to popup stating this fact to the user and also if possible show them who currently has it open. Lastly, they would have a cancel workbook open option until they get the other user to exit.

Apr 4, 2014I have a formula that puts a date into a format I want to read date from a data base.
[Code] ..........
Output is correct = '17-03-2014' if the date is greater than or equals to the 10th but if its the 1st for example I get '1-03-2014' which is wrong as I need the zero to count the date properly. I tried a Left formula on a date field to bring in the first 2 digits but because its a date it returns for example 41 instead of 17 if its the 17th. I was going to do a Left(Text type of formula and place it into an if statement but that didnt work.
Read Text File Using VBA
Jan 5, 2005I know how to pull an entire text file
into an Excel Spreadsheet, but I only want specific information from
the text file not the entire text file.
What I have is about 25 text files stored in a folder, let's say
C: est.
Each file is named by a property address as follows:
209 MAIN ST.txt
213 MAIN ST.txt
111 ELM ST.txt
2356 WOOD AVE.txt
On the 11th row of each file is as follows:
Property Address:209 MAIN ST
On the 31st row of each file is as follows:
Total Value:30500
What I would like to do is read each file located in the "C: est
folder and write a record (row) into a single Excel Spreadsheet for
each property. I would like the Excel Spreadsheet to look as follows
once completed. Note the 1st row below is a header row that needs to
be generated by the code.
Property AddressTotal Value
209 MAIN ST 30500
213 MAIN ST 60700
111 ELM ST 20400
2356 WOOD AVE 20900
Can I read a header list (in a spreadsheet, text file, or hard coded in
the code) which I would prefer the spreadsheet or text file method,
write the header row in A1 then B1. Next read the 25 text files and
search based on the header info written above (Property Address & Total
Value) and write the appropriate to the single spreadsheet. The 11th
row of the First text file value written in cell A2, then read the 31st
row of the First text file write the value in cell B2, then loop to the
Second text file and values from The 11th row of the Second text file
value written in cell A3, then read the 31st row of the Second text
file write the value in cell B3, so on and so forth until the last text
file is read and the last record is written.
Read The 1st Character In The Hex Code
Dec 8, 2008I have a set of Hex Code a total of 4 Sets :
A4EC 9ACF 4A02 044E
1. What i need to do is Read the 1st Character in the Hex Code which say A now.
2. Now I need to find if there is another A in this Hex Code. If yes - e.g
A4EC 9A - I need to find the difference between A-A. How many characters are in between the 2 A-A. So for this I have A 4EC9 A so the difference is 4.
2.1 - Another Senario of "A" - A 4EC9ACF4 A the difference is 8 characters
3. Next we will move on to the next Letter which is 4 and do our search.
The key is i only want to record those Hex code which have a difference of 4,8,10,12 differences.
So for that above example I should be able to record the following :
A 4EC9 A == 4 letter difference
4 A020 4 == 4 letter difference
A 4EC9ACF4 A == 8 letter difference
4 EC9ACF4A020 4 == 10 letter difference
E C9ACF4A02044 E == 12 letter difference

Jun 12, 2009I am trying to get a SUM function to recognise values within a range of cells, that are immediately followed by a *. i.e. 34*
For each range i need to count the total number of inputs, count the number of starred inputs & add up all the values entered.
Currently COUNT doesn't recognise starred values, COUNTIF is set to count only starred values, and SUM wont recognise the value of the starred values.
Is there a way to only read the number element of an input - there are only integer values & starred integer values. The starred inputs are also conditionally formatted. If there is a way would it then affect the COUNT/COUNTIF element?
