Lock Sheet Tabs Using VBA
Oct 13, 2008I 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.
Lock Sheet But Not Pivot On Sheet?
Jan 25, 2012I have a sheet. At the top I have a pivot that essentially lists all our Depts. Below is all kinds of data and calculations dervided via: vlookups on the dept chosen above. The sheet rerfreshes itself each time a new dept is chosen.
Well, they wanted certain cells protected. I did the ole: Tools then: Protection: then: Allow Users to Edt ranges and added the ranges that should be left unprotected after protection is applied. Of course the pivot was left unprotected.
Once you do the: Protect Sheet and and try to click the pivot dropdown to select a dept...it remains locked!!! An error pops up and says you can not have a pivot open on a protected sheet. WHY!! The range is open!!!
I need the user to be able to select their Dept from a dropdown and then my vlookups work off that.

Lock A Sheet But Still Make Some Edits/run Macro
Oct 18, 2009Some of the sheets in my spreadsheet contain some data and graphs with a few macros that are run when a button is pressed. At the bottom I have some comments with a macro that is run to timestamp when these comments are updated or edited.
What I would like to do is lock the entire sheet so that the data and graphs can't be tampered with, apart from the comments part at the bottom because I'd like to be able to have the comments editable. So far I have managed to do that, but when I edit a comment and the timestamp code is run it creates a run-time error 1004. I could just remove the timestamp code I guess but I'd like to keep it there... figuring that there must be a solution.
How can I work around this problem ? Either by being able to keep the sheet locked and still have the timestamp code run, or have it temporarily unlock the sheet - run the code - and then re-lock the sheet.
Sheet Protection Column Width Lock
Jan 16, 2014I am trying to Protect a Sheet to lock the width of just one column. Does the lock apply to all the columns in the worksheet or can it apply to a single column only. I can't seem to get this to lock just one column-if it is possible.

View 9 Replies View RelatedMacro To Lock Cells In Protected Sheet Depending On Criteria
Dec 13, 2007I have a Workbook that I use to log invoices and credit notes and it is password protected so that the cells that contain formulas are locked and therefore not selectable.
What I wanted to know is. Is it possible to lock other cells depending on what values are in certain cells?
Let me explain. I have Columns G & H which contain the heading 'Credit Note Number' & 'Credit Note Amount'. Now in columns I & J I have the heading 'Invoice Number' & 'Invoice Amount' respectively.
What I have done is to make a condional formatting so that If I put a value in cells in column G it will change the colour of the adjacent cells in columns I & J, likewise If I fill in cells in column I the conditional formatting will change the colour of adjacent cells in coulumn G & H. This helps me to see whether a row contains a credit note or an invoice.
What I would ideally like is for a Macro that would automatically locks cells G & H in a particular row that I am currently working on if I enter data into the cell in column I. Likewise if I am entering data in column G in the row I am currently working on for a credit note, then lock columns I & J in the row I am currently in.
Any Ideas how this can be done? Also can locking and unlocking of cells be done in VBA while the sheet is protected or would the macro need to temporarily unprotect sheet, lock the cells then protect sheet again?
PS: I have uploaded a Jpeg of what my conditional formatting does to try and illustrate what it is I need.
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.
