I have a shared workbook with four buttons executing different macros. Problem is that some of the users should only be able to use two of the buttons. To avoid that they accidently press the "restricted buttons" i would like a password (or keyboard shortcut) to enable these.
I'm looking for enabling an excel file with a password that prevent it to be copied on an another drive.
View 1 Replies View RelatedA coworker just ran something by me that i'm quite frankly baffled by. After running a macro, the undo function becomes disabled up to the point of when the macro was ran. I've done a quick search through the forums and can't seem to find this question so i thought i'd ask.
Is there an option to toggle somewhere or 3rd party addon that keeps Undo enabled after running a macro? On a similar topic for my own curiosity, what's the reason that it disables?
I am havng problems with the belwo macro code -
Range("G7").Select
Selection.Copy
Workbooks.Open Filename:= _
"Q:PublicPAYMENTS Q&RREPORTSSuspense Activity BUSINESS2008 - Suspense BUSINESS - Activity Reports2008 Avon.xls"
Application.CutCopyMode = False
ActiveWorkbook.Save
ActiveWindow.Close
End Sub
When i open the workbook it requires me to insert a password, i tried to type this but excel will not follow keystrokes, i then inserted the password in cell G7 which i then copy and paste, which you can see the copy at the beginning of the macro.
Is there a way where you can get it to insert the password so i can open the workbook in a macro.
What im trying to do is save 26 suspense spreadsheets by just clicking on a macro.
I recently reformatted my hard drive. When I re-installed Office 2007, I was unable to run a Workbook that has a Macro in it. First, I went to Add-ins and added the Solveradd-in. When I opened the workbook, I enabled Macros. However, all I get is a maessage saying that the MVB did not compile. I know there are some things you have to do to solve this, but I cannot remember the procedure I went thru 2 years ago to get this to work. Does anyone know what steps I must take?
View 8 Replies View RelatedI have a worksheet that I protect from cell deletions by disabling the command function for 'delete' using the following
CommandBars.FindControl(ID:=292).Enabled = False
I execute this code in two subs:
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
CommandBars.FindControl(ID:=292).Enabled = False
...
and
...
Private Sub Worksheet_SelectionChange(ByVal Target As Range)
CommandBars.FindControl(ID:=292).Enabled = False
...
all fine and good, works great only problem is...
once disabled this function is NOT re-enabled when I leave the workbook.
When the sheet deactivates I run this:
______________________________________________________________
Private Sub Worksheet_Deactivate()
CommandBars.FindControl(ID:=292).Enabled = True
End Sub
____________________________________________________
that works fine while I am changing worksheets within the workbook.
But it doesn't do for this function to remain disabled even after I close the workbook and then it's disabled in all the other workbooks.
What I need is to have the code re-enable this function when the workbook closes or when I activate a different workbook so that the function is only disabled within the specific worksheet of the specific workbook and it remains enabled everywhere else ESPECIALLY after I close that sheet and workbook where I have it disabled!
I tried this:
______________________________________________________________
Private Sub Workbook_Deactivate()
CommandBars.FindControl(ID:=292).Enabled = True
End Sub

I have a workbook with that contains macros on a worksheet. When I open the worksheet, I sometimes forget to enable the macros.
Questions
1.Sometimes I get the message about macros being in the file that I'm opening and sometimes I don't - I don't understand why it doesn't pop up all the time and be consistent.
2. If I don't get the pop up screen or if I do but forget to enable the macros, I get reminded when I try to run a macro. For example, I have a check box and try to check it but I get the message that the macro has to be enabled. So I enable it, but the macro doesn't run. I have to uncheck and then recheck the box to get it to run.
I have a userform with, amongst other controls, a ListBox1 and a CommandButton1.
I have set the CommandButton1 to enabled = False in the properties and need it to be enabled when at least 1 item in the ListBox is selected (the ListBox is multiselect).
I have the following code, but it is not working.
Private Sub ListBox1_Click()
CommandButton1.Enabled = True
End Sub
Both controls are in the same userform and the names correct.
I am trying to edit the data in the actual pivots rather than editing in the data source. i know there is vba code to enable pivot table editing.
How to enable this.
i am trying to work out why i always have to enable macro's when i open some of my files that i have macros in, as i save them as enable macro file. I run excel 2007
as there are files i want to open without clicking on the enable button.
I am using the code below to open multiple workbooks in their own instance of Excel.
On my system, as well as most of the ones I've tested it on, enabling macros in the "parent" workbook, i.e. the one that contains the code, leaves them automatically enabled in the new session of Excel, as though the settings are carried over.
However, recently I've found a few systems where this is not the case. Enabling macros in the parent workbook opens the others, and then I have to enable macros again in each of the new sessions. Is there a way to fix this? All of the systems mentioned above have macro settings set to "disable with notification" and this cannot be changed.
if you open a workbook & choose not to enable macros, is there any way to later change your mind & set macros to enabled without having to close & reopen the workbook?

View 2 Replies View RelatedI have some command buttons on a worksheet that I would like to disable, preferably make not visible, until a specific person logs in. I already have code to display worksheets, or hide them, depending on who is logged in. I would like to just add this code to the end of the login procedure, to make these buttons only visible when that person is logged in.
View 3 Replies View RelatedHere i am attaching the excel sheet where macro is enabled. I have added macros in last spread sheet (Consolidated) everything is working fine. Whats messing is i have copied a macro for the entire workbook, which will disable Copy/Pase/Cut option to all engineers. But problem is its disabled for me as well, every time i have to delete the code for copy/cut options. I just want cut/copy option in the last worksheet (Consolidated) where i can get all the result with out touching the rest of the sheets.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI have a sheet with around 3,000 rows of data. I need to be able to enable/disable different comibinations of three checkboxes based on the value of a cell in column D as follows:
If Band says £0k - £75k then all three check boxes should be disabled
If Band says £75k - £250k then the Step 1 check box should be enabled but the Step 2 and Step 3 check boxes should be disabled
If Band says £250k - £500k then the Step 1 and Step 2 check boxes should be enabled and the Step 3 check box should be disabled
If Band says £500k plus then all three check boxes should be enabled
When a checkbox is disabled I'd like it to appear visible but greyed out so it is obvious the option is not available, maybe via conditional formatting. I don't know if this can be achieved within any code rather than having to manually add conditional formatting afterwards?
I've attached a sample to demonstrate. Is this possible to achieve? I'm open to alternative approaches as well if this makes things easier to do. The mere idea of adding 9,000 plus check boxes if already scary!
I have an excel spreadsheet that has password to open it as well a read only prompt. What I would like to happen is after the user has typed in the password, clicked ok, and then clicked either "yes" or "no" for read only or not that a specific named macro immediately is run.

I need to put together a macro, which will be assigned to a command button, that will prompt the user for a pre-specified password, and, if the password is correct, return a pre-specified value in a different cell. Is there any way to do this?
To put it in perspective, at my company we have approval sheets that need to be signed by several executives that are scattered all over the building. The first executive gets the copy, signs it, sends it off, etc. They tend to dissappear on occasion, so we are looking to make it all electronic, where they can access the file in a shared folder, and the if they enter their password correctly, their initials are input into the specified cell. They can than save the file for the next executive to do the same.
I want a specific workbook to be always on manual but when I open other workbooks I want them to remain on automatic even though the first workbook is set on manual through vba code. Is that possible to be done?
This is the code I run:

With Application
.Calculation = xlManual
.MaxChange = 0.001
.CalculateBeforeSave = False
[Code] .....
I know that Application. Calculation refers to all open workbooks but I don't know the code to specify the manual calculation to this workbook only while others are open.
