Like am having a excel sheet which has N number of cells which cells contails data and numbers and formulas..By using macro how i can first Encode the workbook contents and then decode the workbook by using the same password.
View 8 RepliesI've got a string I'd like to decode. Based on the contents of that string, I'd like to manipulate the 3 cells directly to the right of the string's cell. The string will always be formatted like this: (integer, integer, integer) with three singles next to it.

I have an excel file which I really need to encode non english characters as when I import it into our system all special characters return as �
The problem is I need it to work similar to how this works: Unicode to HTML converter
It only encodes standard text, leaving the HTML intact, and only converts non-english characters such as UTF-8 etc...
I have tried setting the encoding when saving to a CSV file as UTF-8 however still no luck.
I am trying to print from excel a text file of a sheet data, creating the text file works but I need to have it encoded as UTF8?? Here is the code I have to print.
[Code] .....
Not sure if I need to add something to this or do I have to open the text file in Notepad and do the convert to UTF8 there?
Export into multiple notepad files & force UTF-8 encoding .....

I have a workbook that contains a series of macros designed to compare various reports and spit out a report. I don't want my users to have to insert a password, but I want to keep my workbook protected. I've already protected the macros in the VBA Properties, so those are pretty safe, but the worksheets in the workbook are susceptible to changes that will hose my macros.
Setting the workbook to "Read Only" in Properties on our shared drive helps, but any user can change that at will. Within Excel, going to Options, Security, I can set a password so no-one can modify that workbook, but that pops up a password box when they open the workbook. I'd like to NOT have the password box pop up unless I need to make changes. Is there a way to do that? I've looked on the internet but can't find a solution on this one.
I am trying to change a password on a workbook. I have already gone to encrypt document and changed the password. However, when I open the workbook again, my new password works but another popup shows and asks me for another password for write access. That second password was my original password, and I don't know how to change that.

Sub Open_Test_File()
Dim wb As Workbook
Set wb = Application.Workbooks.Open("DesktopTest File.xls")
End Sub
This very simple little code opens a new workbook.
But if I add a password to the file that I'm going to open the password box appears.
What do I need to add to this code to automatically input this password?
I have tried putting this at the end:
Code:
Password:="123"
but this does not work?
I have a master for each manager that pulls a few values from each of their employees personal sheets.
The personal sheets (about 30) are individually password protected so only the owners can open them.
This is creating a security issues as the links in the master require the passwords for each of the "source" workbooks.
Is there any way to add some code so that the passwords do not need to be entered each time?
I'm looking to password protect the sheets in my workbook (using vba) but I can't seem to join this up with allowing users to edit scenarios.
If I record the protection I get this:
Code:
ActiveSheet.Protect DrawingObjects:=False, Contents:=True, Scenarios:= _
False
I normally use:
Code:
ActiveSheet.Unprotect Password:="password"
I just need to combine the two. Adding the password before 'DrawingObjects' or at the end doesn't seem to work.
I have 5 sheets in my work book.
Sheet Names:
1) PasswordPage - - I would like this to be the page where a user needs to type in their password. If it is correct, their own worksheet would display.
2) Sally - - Hidden and protected, unless Sally types in correct password. Sally's password would be Summer
3) Vanessa - - Hidden and protected, unless Vanessa types in correct password. Vanessa's password would be Pluto
4) George - - Hidden and protected, unless George types in correct password. George's password would be Carpet
5) Alexander - - Hidden and protected, unless Alexander types in correct password. Alexander's password would be Lampost
I would like to ensure that noone else see's anyone else's sheet unless they know the appropriate password, as each individual sheet contains sensitive information.
I also plan to "protect" each sheet also, so that the Sally, Vanessa, George and Alexander cannot make changes to the formulas, etc. - - this I already know how to do.
My question relates more to, How do I hide/ password protect each sheet as outlined above? I assume I must use visual basic, however I am not very familar with it.
I have to use vbscript to add a password to an excel file i'm generating on the fly. I can't use the "Save As" option. Is there any other way I can do this? I need it to prompt the user before any data is displayed.

Since there are lot of these files which are created, I would be interested in protecting them via a macro..
My question is as follows:
I have two workbooks in the same folder on a shared drive. Workbook2 is linked to workbook1. I have protected Workbook1 with a password protected to limit access.
When my collegues who use workbook2 try to open it, it asks for the password for workbook1 before opening. When they ignore that and go a head to open the file. The new information from workbook1 is not updated into workbook2.
How can i mentain my password in workbook1, and keep the files linked such that they can be able to see the new information in workbook2 without knowing the password for workbook1.
I am trying to add a command button that will set a custom view, password protect all worksheets, and finally password protect the entire workbook structure. The code I am using will correctly set the view and add the password to the worksheets, but it will not apply the password to the workbook structure. What do I need to add?

I've got two files: the one that is the source file and the second one which is the target file. The target file is password protected (let us take the number 1 as the password in this case). I have a macro that would copy the value of an example cell to the target file:
Sub iso()
Dim wBook As Workbook
Range("A2").Activate
ActiveCell.Copy
On Error Resume Next
Set wBook = Workbooks("Test2.xls")
If wBook Is Nothing Then
ChDir "D:"
Set oWB = Workbooks.Open(Filename:="D: est2.xls")
to add a line (or two) to this code, that would open and unprotect the target file and then at the and protect the target file with the same password.
protect all the sheets. I would want the password box to popup whenever, the excel file is opened unless the proper password is entered the sheets file should remain deactivated and when the password is entered it should be displayed as "*".
View 2 Replies View RelatedOn opening a workbook (XL2003) I want users to enter a password which will give them read Only permissions or access to the whole book. I do not want use the "save as" option it is not suitable for my needs & here is why. I have about 10 staff who need to fill in timesheets using XL SS on a public folder on the server. The staff need full access to file & management such as myself only need to view (read only) the timesheet without the ability to change data. Using the "save as" function the staff need to input 2 passwords.
The staff (in general) are not overly computer literate so I was hoping to be able to write code so that on Workbook_Open event only one password is entered and depending on the password gives the user full access or readonly access. This will also save management having to remember different passwords for read only access to different staff timesheet files & will give crude protection to the files.
Private Sub Workbook_Open()
Dim Message, Title, Default, Password As String
Message = "Enter your password" ' Set prompt.
Title = "Password" ' Set title.
Default = " " ' Set default.
' Display message, title, and default value.
Password = InputBox(Message, Title, Default)
If Password = "test" Then
Workbook.ReadOnly = True
Else
Workbook.ReadOnly = False
End If
End Sub
Error occur on "Workbook.ReadOnly" lines . I also want to put an errorchecking code for invalid passwords. Again, I know I can use the "save as" option but that is not what I need.
I have a workbook with the following

pass:

This code opens a msgbox that asks for a password and then unlocks certain cells based on what the password is. I have 140 of these workbooks. I need to be able to open them all and change one cell in each file, save it and close. I've gotten the macro written to open, change and save the files, but I am still having to type the 'password' 140 times. Is there a way to bypass it?
Is there a way to unprotect a workbook and/or worksheet in Excel 2002/2003 if
the original password is forgotten?
I need something to recover or break a password from a protected workbook.

I've 10 workbooks (which represent different areas around the factory) that populate a master workbook (belonging to HR).
We've now started to password protect the 10 workbooks. When i open the master workbook and click update - i get prompted to enter the passwords of the 10 workbooks
My question - is it possbile to automatically have the passwords entered so that the master can get updated?
In my office, our colleague locked his macros before he left. Now, I would like to continue in that but I have no idea, how to get into macro - to study it and change it as needed now.

I was handed a workbook that is password protected. The worksheets are not password protected. Because the workbook is protected, I cannot add or delete worksheets.
I figured that I could get around this by copying the worksheets to another workbook, but I can't even do that. Naturally, no one remembers what the password is.
When I close one excel document, I get prompted for a password.. And it won't close (I don't know the password) The only way I can get it away is by terminating it in task manager. I have read alot of threads in here, where the solutions should be to uninstall Google Desktop..
