I have some password protected excel worksheets that required editing as they are from earlier versions, an earlier time and all need to be updated. This would be fine if it was myself who actually made the worksheets, but the person who did retired a couple of years ago and has dropped off the map (no contact details etc).
I know how to remove passwords, when I was the one who set them. The big problem here is, they are all macro enabled and for some reason the free down load password removal applications do not unlock worksheets that are macro enabled.

I have a PO Template which I wish auto insert below information in the footer.
a) User Name
b) Create date
c) Last modify user
d) Last modify date
e) Print date
f) No of pages (Say Page: 1 of 3)
When the PO is issued, the softcopy will be saved in a Server.
In certain circumstance, the existing PO will required to be revised. Most cases, it might not be the same user who created this.
For tracking on identity, I wish the last modify user, date and print date to be captured and printed in the footer note?
Whether I can lock the footer information as well? So that all user will not be able to edit these information?
It is possible to lock the Author of the Worksheet in File --> Properties --> Summary Tab..?

How to get a column that lists the author of the document.
I have a template file for ordering trafolyte and steel plates. I have added macros to this template file. The existing macros do the following (shortly described):
Macro 1: clears order
Macro 2: update order date + send a read only file to the supplier of plates + save a read only copy of the file into one of three folders acc to info in one of the cells.
It's the Macro 2 I want to edit.
I want to add a "function" which copy a selection of data.column A to N from row 12 to 548 but only the rows where there is a value in column A.
Row 1 to 11 includes standard order info and Macro buttons.
Row 11 includes the heading for order data.
For everytime someone click on the Macro 2 button in the template file, I want the selection to be paste into the first "available" row in a "Total list" file.
The "Total list" file may have to be open (or a function to open, paste selection and then close the "Total list" file may be added)
File and Folder info:
To simplify suggestions, the following file and path info can be used (I can change to the correct later):
Template file name: template_order.xlsm
Template file location: \servershared emplate
Total list file name: total_list.xlsx
Total list file location: \servershared otal
Selection info:
The template file exists of a "general order info area" A1:N10
The column heading for order data is located at A11:N11
The selection to be copied is A12:N550 - But only rows where column A includes data (not empty).
(If the spesific order consists of 14 plates than there will be item no 1-14 in column A and I then I want to copy A12:N25 (row 25 will be item 14).
When I try to use record macro it looks like it only records what's happening in the template file - It doesn't record the pasting in the total list.

is it possible to display the files open (the contents of the Windows drop down menu from standard toolbar) in a display that can be viewed at all times on a workstation. My reason for this is to monitor the files I have open to avoid trying to open a second copy and getting error reports from macros within. These error reports seem to frighten some of the users here and rather than read them and act accordingly they go for coffee and say thier system is down. It is my intention once I can get a system working, to introduce these people to monitor what they already have open, and more importantly what they do not need open at any particular time.

I have created a scorecard which has 4 key drop down lists:
- Site, Coach, Team and Agent
Coach and Team populate the dropdowns dependant on which site is selected and Agent is based on which team is selected.
I have created an external file called dropdowndata.xlsx as the main source. This file has two sheets. Sheet 1 (dropdowndata) is the main Site, Coach and Team data and then Sheet 2 (GLAteam) contains the linking Team and Agent data.
The drop down lists are based on a number of named ranges and lookups.
So the issue I am having is that the drop down lists only work if I have the dropdowndata.xlsx file open on my laptop.
Is there anyway to get this to work without having to actually open the file?
