Jan 5, 2009I'm using Excel '03 and I need to be able to lock certain cells after input, but only for certain users on my network. Ideally, I (administrator), would still be able to edit the cells in case of a mistake or whatever reason. I want the other users limited to adding information and not editing the existing information in a range. I would need this applied to several columns (B, C, I, and K) if this is possible.

Jan 9, 2009Have a worksheet that will be used multiple times. User will enter name and employee number only on the first instance that the worksheet is opened. Would like to protect that info automatically for further usage. Most of the worksheet is protected but some cells need to remain unlocked so the "whole" sheet protection will not work.
How do I protect only specified cells, say F3, G3, H3, I3, after the user enters data thru an input box without changing any other protected cells on the sheet?

Apr 16, 2008I am trying to apply a conditional cell lock to a worksheet. I am using Excel 2003, not 2007.
In column J, I have a list validation being used. The default value is "Not Claimed", I want to lock the cell from being edited once the value has been changed to any other value on the list.
The worksheet will be password protected to prevent entries into static fields (A:I & N:P).
I also would like to give the user the ability to unlock a specific cell, not the entire worksheet, by entering a password or something if they accidently choose a wrong value from the list.
I have column Q and beyond available if I need to have the password entered somewhere else.
I have attached a sample of the file I am working with.

View 2 Replies View RelatedLock Cells For A Certain Time After Entry
Oct 10, 2012I've got a spreadsheet set up for a simple barcode scanning system. The user scans the barcode of the product when complete, and it logs it to a sheet along with a date & time timestamp. I'm then planning to use a v-lookup (barcode to product name) & pivot-table to count instances of 'product name' so that I can monitor what is being produced easier, nothing too tricky.
The problem I'm having comes from the products of the same spec having the same barcode, so data validation is hard to apply, as I can't 'not allow dupes' - the concern I have is that if the user unknowingly (or knowingly!) scans the same ticket twice, I think I've got 2 of a product when I've only got one. The idea I had was to lock all cells for a set time period (say 1 minute) after an entry so that it couldn't be accidentally scanned twice.
Lock Cells, Protect Sheet With Password & Time Stamp
Jul 18, 2007I have a worksheet with employees names and their overtime hours worked that week. I would like to add some code to a button that will prompt for a password. If that password matches a predefiened password then lock a range of cells and place a time stamp next to the button and maybe change the button color of the button to Red. Now if the person with the password wants to change the locked cells, they can click the button again and enter the password and the button will turn green so they can make the changes. I would like the time stamp to be updated every time the cells are locked. Also wanted to have one button for every work week so about four buttons per worksheet. Here is an example of the worksheet. The range of cells I want to lock are the ones in bold.

Cell Auto-lock After Entering Time
Sep 16, 2013I have created a time sheet and I would like to know if there is a way to auto-lock cells after time is entered so that it cannot be changed. As of right now I have employees enter the time by using Shift+Ctrl+;, so the exact time is recorded, however employees can write in whatever time they want. so I guess what I want to do is 2 things:
1- can the cell be formatted to only accept Shift+Ctrl+;, so that the exact time is entered in the cell and prevent employees from entering times they were not at work?
and
2- can the cell auto-lock after Shift+Ctrl+; is entered so that they can't modify the time sheet the next day if they arrived earlier than the day before?

Automatically Change Cell (With Time) Color After Time Period Has Passed
May 23, 2008I have a protected worksheet. Users wish to be able to track changes in the input cells. The suggested approach for this is to temporarily disable sheet protection and allow them to change the font color, then protect afterwards. What I would like to do is:
i) check whether they are in an input cell
ii) if so, then prompt the user with the 'Font Color' dialog box
iii) apply the font color selected to the input cell
I'm struggling to find the dialog box I need. I can launch the one to change the interior color, no problem (Application.Dialogs(xlDialogPatterns).Show). But that's no use to me, I just want a color palette that specifically relates to the Font Color

How To Make Macro To Lock Certain Cells Connected To Another Cells Value Then Copy Daily
Mar 29, 2014am making Excel for private use, i need the following makro to be active, here is the idea because i didnt yet work with makros at all:
If A1 = False
then Range B1:D1 will be locked cells
If A1 = True
then Range B1:D1 will be unlocked cells
Those rules apply to 1 day in the year.
the range A1:D1 will be copied about 400 so the makro should be active to each day separatly.
Check the picture attached for example of one day
Lock Cells Based On Value Of Other Cells - Code Simplification Query
Apr 22, 2009I'm using the code below to lock certain cells depending on the value of other cells. The code below deals with one line of my spreadsheet only and as the spreadsheet comprises 38 data entry rows I've repeated this code 38 times in the worksheet module with the appropriate changes to row numbers.
It works, but causes much screen flickering and "thinking". I'm new to vba so no doubt I've made this code too extensive or lengthy or whatever (or just plain wrong).
Can anyone assist with suggestions on how to simplify the code and/or help with code to handle all 38 lines without repeating the routine 38 times?
