I have a excel document with 5 tabs (sheets) and, because different people work with a different tab (sheet), I want to lock each tab (sheet). I want the tab to be visible on the tab bar but when you click on it you will not be able to see the content of that tab (sheet) until you provide the right password (each tab with a different pasword).

View 9 Replies View RelatedI 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.

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.

I am using a sum formula that goes across multiple tabs, but noted when I rearranged the order of the tabs, that the results of the formula changed. After some minor research, I noted that I had moved a tab outside the "sum range" inadvertently.
How do you programatically enable the CAPSLOCK key in VBA? I've tried:
Sendkeys "{CAPSLOCK}"
When I run this, Excel's status bar flashes "CAPS" for about 1 second then disappears. It seems to have no impact on the keyboard for case-sensitivity - which is what I'm shooting for.
Need code that would make cell J2 be populated with U no matter what was placed in cell J2 either manually or externally.

View 14 Replies View RelatedI need to get rid of the option to DELETE a sheet. However, when I password protect the WORKBOOK (which does this fine) none of the Macro buttons will execute, even with Macro security settings set to ENABLE ALL.
Looks like I will need some VBA code to not allow any of the sheets in the workbook to be deleted.
I've done the following steps so far:
Tools
VBAFormatProperties
Checked the "Lock Project from Viewing"
Applied a password
and clicked Ok
