Locking Cells Depending On What Is Entered In Another Cell

Sep 22, 2009

I'd like to lock some cells depending on what is put in a particular cell. As shown by the file attached, if the first column (Amendments) has a "no" in A4, I'd like to lock out cells B4:D4. (The sheet will be protected). If it's a "yes" then the cells are unlocked. I'd like to then apply this to all subsequent rows (i.e. lock B5:D5 if a "no" in A5 etc.)

Locking Cell After Data Entered?

Jan 27, 2013

I have a command button [Start] that when clicked, will enter the time the process started. I then wish to have the cell locked so the time cannot be changed after it has been entered. I tried this code:

Private Sub CommandButton7_Click()
Range("I5").Select
ActiveCell.FormulaR1C1 = Now()
Cell.Locked = True
End Sub

But am getting an error for the "cell.locked = true"

Any proper code to lock the cell after the data has been entered?

Locking Cell Dependent On Data Entered

Oct 18, 2009

I'm working in MS Office Excel 2003. I have a spreadsheet with numerous drop down boxes and references to named ranges. Here's my current quandary:

In cell I12, I have a drop down box with listed choices A, B, C and D. In cells I15, I18, I21 and I24, I also have drop downs.

What I'm trying to do is when choice D is picked from I12 it locks cells I15, I18, I21 and I24 so that the choices in the drop down cannot be picked. Also, a popup message is displayed.

I was able to receive help in getting this pretty much taken care of. But the problem I'm having with the code is that the popup message is also being displayed whenever I make a choice from other drop down boxes. So if I choose option D from I12, it locks the other 4 cells and displays the message just fine, but then if I choose anything else from say K12 or L21 then the message continues to come up. Here's what I have...

Locking Cell Dependent On Data Entered..

Oct 10, 2009

In cell D10, there is a drop down menu with choices A, B, C and D. Cells D13, 16, 19 and 22 also have a drop down menu. What I would like the code to do, is when option D is chosen from D10's menu, cells D13, 16, 19 and 22 are locked so that the user cannot choose an option from any of those cells.

So basically, if D10="OptionD" then [whatever the value is to lock cells D13, 16, 19 and 22 from drop down use)

If possible, I'd like this as an IF function, and not a VBA macro. I'm not completely familiar with all of the IF functions...um...functionalities, so forgive me if I ask the impossible. But if the IF cannot do it, VBA code is fine.

Cell Colour Depending On Value Entered

Apr 19, 2007

I found the code below to do almost exactly what i want. However, i would like to know if it can be modified to only affect a specific cell range. In my case, the cell range is B9:AF37.

Option Compare Text 'A=a, B=b, ... Z=z
Option Explicit

Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)

Dim Cell As Range
Dim Rng1 As Range

On Error Resume Next
Set Rng1 = ActiveSheet.Cells.SpecialCells(xlCellTypeFormulas, 1)
On Error Goto 0
If Rng1 Is Nothing Then
Set Rng1 = Range(Target.Address)
Else
Set Rng1 = Union(Range(Target.Address), Rng1)
End If
For Each Cell In Rng1

Locking Different Cell Ranges Then Locking Whole Sheet With Macros

Jan 4, 2010

I have been assigned the task of creating our new integrated time and leave sheet in Excel 2007, previously we had 2 sheets, one for times and one for leave.

The problem I have is that I need to protect the authorisaton columns therre are 2 one for AM and one for PM, so that only Managers can authorise leave by inputting a password and then initialing the leave.

What I then need to do a the end of each month is for the manager to be able to click a Button with a Macro which will then lock the whole worksheet so that employees cannot change their times after the manager has checked the sheet.

I can lock the authorisation columns and password protect but I have to enable protection on the sheet, when I do this I cannot then figure out a way of running a macro which will then protect the whole sheet and assign a password to it so it cannot be changed after being checked and signed off.

I have tried to create a macro (button) to remove the protection on the 2 columns and then reapply protection to the whole sheet with another button but to no avail.....

If anyone has any suggestions I would be eternaly greatful.

Passwords on the sheet for the different buttons are abc or cobra.

Locking One Cell If Another Had A Value In It (conditional Locking)

Oct 10, 2008

I recently posted a thread on locking one cell if another had a value in it, and vice versa for the other cell. I got this great response (thanks se1429!) and it works GREAT, but I failed to mention that the worksheet is password protected. It asks for a password when I enter a value in one of the cells. I just need help adjusting this code so I can put my password in the code and allow the worksheet to unlock and lock at will by using this password.

Match Letter Of Ranges Depending Value Entered?

Jul 3, 2014

I have low limits in column D and high limit in column E. In column C a letter corresponding to each limit range.

In B2 the formula should outputs the corresponding letter based of the value entered in A2. For example, if 0>=A2>=3 then the output should be"M".

The formula works fine, but if I have more conditions I'll need to use many IF() functions. Is there a better way to match the correct letter depending the value in A2?

Shading And Locking Multiple Cells From Input Based On Value In Separate Single Cell

Sep 23, 2013

Now the problem, Each client has a sheet in a workbook. In each sheet, I input the number of days of service available to that particular client in a single cell. We'll say cell [G8] is the cell used for this input in all sheets. If the client has 30 days of service available then we type [30] in cell [G8]. Each sheet is a 100 day template. I want to shade in dark grey and lock from input the days NOT available to the client based on the days of service input in cell [G8]. If 30 days of service are available in cell [G8] then the remaining 70 days on the 100 day template would be shaded dark grey and locked from input. That is, day 31 through day 100 of the template would be locked and shaded. Each individual day has multiple cells in a column. I want to lock and shade each column of cells in each day not available.

Insert Formula Depending On Cells Depending Of Variables?

Jan 27, 2014

In a macro I want to automatically insert a formula in several cells. The formula depends on other cells, and I want to be able to manipulate these cells with variables. Here is my code:

[Code] .....

All my variables are declared:

Sheets("DATOS YTD 2014").Cells(I, Semana + 1) is the cell I want to be able to chose due to the variables
Sheets("DATOS YTD 2014").Cells(I, 3) is the reference cell for the VLOOKUP formula, that will vary with I
SheetMonth.Range("B3:W172") is a range in the sheet SheetMonth which is fixed

The error message I receive is the following: "Run-time error 13, Type mismatch"

I precise that the next step is to make the ",6," part in the vlookup formula also variable... but I guess once my current issue is solved this one will be a piece of cake.

Separate First And Last Names Entered In One Cell Into Two Different Cells

Feb 4, 2009

The database that I'm working on divides patient names into three separate columns: lastName, firstName, midInit. My department has several old spreadsheets that have data my boss suddenly wants included in my database. The trouble is, these old spreadsheets have the patient's last name, first name, and middle initial entered into the same column.

There are at least 200 hundred names in these spreadsheets. I absolutely do not want to go back and separate the names into separate columns by hand.

Is there any way to get Excel to take the names entered into one cell and split them into three cells?

I've attached a spreadsheet example that shows what I need to do.

'shift Cells Right' Depending On Value Of Cell

Jan 4, 2010

I need a macro that will "examine" the text of column B for every row checking to see if the text "Proper Text" is in the cell and if not, execute this code for that cell and then move on to perfrom the same until it finds an empty cell:

Selection.Insert Shift:=xlToRight
Range("B2085").Select
ActiveCell.FormulaR1C1 = "Click for detail image"
With ActiveCell.Characters(Start:=1, Length:=22).Font
.Name = "Arial"
.FontStyle = "Regular"
.Size = 10
.Strikethrough = False
.Superscript = False
.Subscript = False
.OutlineFont = False
.Shadow = False
.Underline = xlUnderlineStyleNone
.ColorIndex = xlAutomatic

Note that "B2085" above is the cell number that the script stops on to execute this code.

Highlighting Cells Depending On A Value In Another Cell

Aug 19, 2006

Have a spreadsheet shows 4000 warehouse locations (location of products). Each cell is a location in the warehouse (ba050, ca809, etc, actual warehouse locations, not grid ref); some products have more than one location, the locations are always next to each other. I import a text file into the workbook which tells me which product has more than one location (2, 10, 50, etc), that’s all I’m interested in ( multiple locations).

What I’ve done so far is to use vlookup to look at locations in file and allocated the number (the number of locations that product has) next (next column) to the cell that correspond to that location. What I need is a macro or formula that will look at the number and than highlight that many cells up or down the column, according to the number in the cell to the right (5 in cell, highlight 5 cells, 50 highlights 50). The warehouse runs up one aisle and then down the next and so on. So I need to be able to highlight cells up one column and then down the next and then up, then down and so on.

Multiple locations change on a daily bases, so need a quick way of updating 4000 locations.

New to excel don’t know if this is possible or not. Learning as I go.
Need some assistance.

Sample below.
Only interested if a number is returned, “******” can be ignored as will hide all columns expect ones with locations. So:

BA020 returned value of 4, so would like to highlight (any colour) BA020, BA029, BA040, BA049.

BB780 returned value of 2, so would like to highlight BB780, BB789.

POSSIBLE?

BA090 2 BA100 **** BB749 **** BB739 ****

BA079 **** BA089 **** BB760 **** BB750 ****

BA070 **** BA080 **** BB769 **** BB759 ****

BA059 **** BA069 **** BB780 2 BB770 ****

BA050 **** BA060 4 BB789 **** BB779 ****

BA039 **** BA049 **** BB800 **** BB790 ****

BA030 4 BA040 **** BB809 **** BB799 ****

BA019 **** BA029 **** BB820 **** BB810 ****

BA010 **** BA020 4 BB829 **** BB819 ****

Excel 2010 :: Lock Out Cells If A Value Is Entered In Another Cell

Mar 14, 2012

I am trying to lock out cells if a value is entered in another cell in Excel 2010. For instance, when entering a value into N7 (merged Columns N7,O7,P7 into one - not sure if that matters) I want Q7 (same thing, merged Q7,R7,S7 into one) and T7 (merged T7,U7,V7 into one) to be locked out.

So, if N7 has anything typed into it, I would like Q7 and T7 (merged) to be locked.

If that's possible, I would also like for it to happen from rows N7 - N21 ...

Is this hard to do? My understanding is that it's only possible through VBA ... am I accessing the script correctly? (right click the 'sheet 1' tab [named Issues log], select 'view code').
