Excel 2007 :: Hide Sheets On Opening And Password Protect Viewing
Nov 1, 2009
I have an Excel 2007 workbook which has five sheets in. I just wondered whether it is possible to hide all five of them when the workbook is first opened. Also I would like the user to be asked for a password when they wish to unhide a sheet, with the password being different for each of the sheets.
Is there also a way to do this which won't be affected by Excel disabling all Macros when the application initially opens.

Here is what I try to achieve:
- I have a "Menu" worksheet with basic Hyperlink to Sheet1, Sheet2 etc.
- When I click on a link (or on the tab), I want a prompt asking for a password (different for each tab). I do not anyone who doesn't have the correct password to see the content of the worksheet.
(I don't know VBA and I couldn't modify the code to fit my needs)
Here is the code posted
Dim sLast As ObjectPrivate Sub Workbook_Open() 'Ensure Sheet1 is not the active sheet upon opening. If Sheet1. Name = ActiveSheet.Name Then Sheet2.SelectEnd

I have a file w/ individuals monthly sales information (per worksheet) that needs to be distributed in one mass email to the entire sales force. I want everyone to have access to the "Summary" tab, but individuals should only have access to their own "Details" tab. I know there has to be a way to accomplish via VBA. However, I'm not proficient in writing code.

I know how to protect a worksheet with a password so that no one can amend the contents or view the formulas in the cells. And then we can un-protect the worksheet by clicking on the "review" tab in excel 2007 and so on. But recently I came across an excel sheet which was password protected and my query is that the "Review" tab was greyed out. What kind of protection was this that clicking on "review" tab option is also unavailable. And how does these kind of sheets get unlocked then.

I am using Excel 2007 and I have a worksheet with multiple columns, some of these columns are protected and some are not.
I then lock the worksheet with a password so the user can't edit certain cells that are protected but can modify the unprotected cells, the problem is the user cannot use the filter or sort the workbook.
Is there a way to allow filtering or sorting but still lock down the worksheet.

Some sensitive data is held on worksheets that are used by people that do not have access to see the data.
It would be most convenient to keep the data in these worksheets but hide it from view of the users.
Is there a way to password protect a users ability to unhide a column?

I am making a database system that tracks student activity in my schools lab for people taking foreign language courses. I'm trying to make it so students must use the userform to manage they're checking in and out, and not be able to have any direct access to the Spreadsheet itself. Also, it would be nice if the whole Spreadsheet was hidden, invisible, and only the user forms could be seen.

I have a sheet that is password protected. I have this code attached to a command button. It will unlock the worksheet, autofilter it, print it, unfilter it, and password protect the sheet again. However it is protecting it without a password. I need to have it protected with the password so that someone will not be able to just go to tools to unprotect the sheet.
Private Sub CommandButton1_Click()
ActiveSheet.Unprotect "rainforest"
Columns("O:O").Select
Selection.AutoFilter
Selection.AutoFilter Field:=1, Criteria1:=">0", Operator:=xlAnd
ActiveWindow.SelectedSheets.PrintOut Copies:=1, Collate:=True
Selection.AutoFilter Field:=1
Selection.AutoFilter
ActiveSheet.Protect DrawingObjects:=True, Contents:=True, Scenarios:=True _
, AllowSorting:=True, AllowFiltering:=True
End Sub

Using Excel 2007, I have a workbook with 7 sheets. The first one is a Navigation Page where I have checkboxes (form controls, not active X) with the names of the other 6 sheets. When the box(es) are checked, the sheet(s) become visible. I have accomplished this by assigning macros I recorded.
I need to now add the opposite: When the box(es) are unchecked, the sheets become hidden. From googling and looking for other threads/forums here, I gather that I need to add code/ VBA, but I know nothing about these at all.

I have a workbook with 7 tabs called "Sat" thro to "Sun". I'd like a macro which
a) protects the sheets as an array (as opposed to individually)
b) preferably uses a password

I have a series of workbooks where multiple users are entering data. Most of the cells are locked, and the worksheets are password protected. From time to time, I have to make global changes to all the workbooks. I've recorded a macro to open all the workbooks, but now, I'm running into a problem because for speed, I'd like to unprotect the worksheets and "re-protect" them without having to enter the password 3 million times (exagerration, but not much). What is the proper syntax of code to have VBA enter the password automatically (it is the same for all sheets).

I've used VBA to make a picture appear when all the correct answers have been entered and it all works well. However, not to be too mean to 15 year olds, many of my students can be devious little feckers, and I want to hide and password protect the VBA code so that they can't just change the pictures visible section to true. I can password protect the workbook and worksheet, but not the VBA.
I'm entering the Visual Basic editor and I can see my simple script. I then click Tools - VBproject properties - protection. I'm clicking the "Lock Project for Viewing" box then filling in the password and confirming the password and clicking OK. But I can still see and edit my script, despite protecting the sheet and workbook.

I have a spreadsheet with over a hundred tabs, each of which need to be password protected (same password).
I found code on CFO.com that got me half way there. It protects all the spreadsheets, but it does not password protect the macro itself, meaning that anybody can step into the macro and unlock everything at the click of a button.
The code looks like this.
VB:
Sub ProtectAllSheets()
For Each ws In ActiveWorkbook.Worksheets
ws.Protect Password:="secret123"
Next ws
MsgBox "All Worksheets Protected"
[Code] ....
What can I do to prevent people from stepping into the macro, or prompt a password to actually use the macro itself?

See I have hidden my sheets and I need them to stay hidden.
But when I need to unhide them, a password should be needed to unhide them.
Maybe add a button on one of the open sheets that when pressed will unhide the sheets but will promt for password.

I have placed a workbook on a network drive. This workbook contains sensitive information and I would like to protect it to a "feasible" degree. I have written the following code
Private Sub Workbook_Open()
Dim userid As String, valid_userid As String
Dim i As Integer
valid_userid = "MISI01/"
userid = GetUserName()
userid = UCase(userid) & "/"
i = InStr(1, userid, valid_userid)
If i = 0 Then
MsgBox ("You are not authorised to use this workbook")
ActiveWorkbook.Close False
Exit Sub
End If
'create menu when workbook opens
Call Module1.CreateMenu("")
Call Modul1.check_filedate("")
' This will disable the user from moving, renaming etc the sheets
ActiveWorkbook.Protect Structure:=True, Windows:=False
End Sub
As can be seen from the above code, I check if the current userid is one of those that are valid to open the workbook. If not the idea is to tell them and close the workbook immediately (this bit isn't tested yet). This code is not supposed to be hacker proof, but to prohibit the casual user from reviewing the the data.
