Locking Macros In Spreadsheets At Work

Jun 27, 2014

I need to lock the macros in spreadsheets at work.

If I go to Developer>Macros I can edit any of the macros.

So to protect them I went to Visual Basic>Tools>VBA Project

What I don't understand is that there is already a password there.

How it is possible that I can edit any of the macros under Developer>Macros when there is a password which I haven't entered under Visual Basic>Tools>VBA Project

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.

Lookups That Retrieve Portions Of Text

Aug 20, 2014

If you look at the workbook I have attached, I have made a mock up of a file that I have to use. Cells A1:F12 are part a "Situation Status" file. My team uses this file to update that status of certain events. It shows the current planned estimated completion date for each event in each area. We are required to strikethrough every time the estimated completion date slides out. In some cases, the dates have move 3 or more times so there are cells with multiple dates with strikethroughs. The current date is always the last date in the text string and does not have a strikethrough.

Cells H1:J17 are part of a matrix that I am making to try and capture only the most current ECDs. I want I3 to show "8/10" instead of "8/1 8/3 8/10."

The Event Status and Event Matrix are part of two separate files that I have. The Event Status file is constantly changing so I can't simply say =RIGHT(B4,4) because I could wind up showing the date of a different situation.

Is there a way to lookup the situation name (i.e. "Situation 1"), the Area number, and the event number and return ONLY the latest ECD (the date without the strikethrouh)?

Ranking Portions Of Data With Same Number

Mar 18, 2013

I have 4,300 cells populated with data. I have sorted the data and now I need to rank the data in 1% increments. For example, the first 1% of data (43 cells) will be ranked #1, the second 1% of data (43 cells) will be ranked #2 etc. How could I automate this process? I was trying to figure something out with the "Rank" command but that doesn't seem to work in this situation.

Remove Portions Of Formula Based On Surrounding Characters?

May 13, 2014

I have about 25 workbooks with 180 formulas in them that I would like changed. The formulas are all in the range I10:Q29 and all have the same basic structure:

[Code]....

I would like to remove "filepath1!cell1*filepath1!cell2-" and "filepath1!cell2-" so that only "(filepath2!cell3*filepath2!cell4)/(filepath2!cell4)" remains.

My VBA is pretty weak, but I imagine it should be possible to use something like the VBA equivalent of len() and mid() to isolate the components of the equation to the left of the - in the numerator and denominator, and remove those components (as well as the -) from the formula.

Copy And Paste Portions Of Excel Worksheets - Picture Is Too Large

Dec 2, 2013

Recently, when trying to copy and paste portions of excel worksheets, I've been getting the message: The picture is too large and will be truncated.

I have copied and pasted this same way for years and the problem has just arisen over the past month. An excel issue or possibly something else and just getting the message with Excel since it's the software I'm using 90% of every day?

My files are stored on a network drive, not my hard drive.

Saving Portions Of Selected Cell Data As New Text Files

Jun 21, 2009

I have a worksheet in my workbook that contains data for 25 different airfoils, each one in a cell space of 3 columns and 50 rows.
In order to do some analysis on these airfoils, I need to save each 3x50 as separate text file to define input for analysis code.
How can I do this in VB in one macro?

Excel 2010 :: Making Portions Of Drag Down Formula Skip Cells

Feb 11, 2014

I have set up a formula to sum data from specific columns in multiple sheets in the same file. The simple formula had worked perfectly until I needed the data from the last sheet. In all of the other sheets the data that I need to pull is all in consecutive rows but in the last sheet the data that I need pulled and added is in every 4th row. The sheet looks like this:

All of the columns I've filled in work fine. The ones blank are the ones I am running into issues with. When I drag down the formulas excel pulls the next consecutive rows, which is perfect for the first four sheets I am summing, but for the fifth sheet (I'll ref the Test1 column) I need it to pull 'Wayne 2014'!C6 and then 'Wayne 2014'!C10 in the next row and so forth.

Date
All Test
Test1
Test2
Test3
Test4
$ Amt.

Jan.16
=SUM(C2+D2+E2+F2)

[Code] ........

The first four sheets look like this, which is why they work fine:

Date
All Test
Test1
Test2
Test3
$ Amt.

Jan. 16
=SUM(C2:E2)

[Code] ........

The fifth sheet looks like this: I only want the formulas from the first sheet to pull the data from the dated rows in this sheet.

Date
All Test
Test1
Test2
Test3
$ Amt.

Jan. 16
=SUM(C2:E2)
=SUM(C3:C5)

[Code] ......

Is there any way in Excel 2010 to get it do what I want? (I am not sure how that one cell became outlined and I do not know how to fix it.)

Match Text Against Portions Of Other Text

Dec 15, 2006

I am trying to see if part of a text string matches part of another text string. Example: In C1:C100, I have names. In C101:C300, I have names that are similar to those in C1:C100, but may include a "The" in front or have "Inc" in the back, or both. Is there a way for me to check if each of the names in C101:C300 match one of those in C1:C100 and then get the matching value from C1:C100?

Locking Timestamp

Mar 27, 2009

=IF(D2<>"",IF(A2="",NOW(),A2),"")

Whenever I type into field D2 it populates current date and time in field A2 and down the A column as I write into current D columns. The next step I would like to do in which he was able to figure out so far is how to lock in the date and time after something has been typed into D2. If I make any changes to the D2 field it updates the date and time, which I dont want to happen.

I did review some examples your members have already provided however I have a slight twist.

I have multiple users adding to a spreadsheet from which data is later copied to a master sheet. I need to lock ONLY cells which contain data when user chooses to save spreadsheet or saves speadsheet on exit. If the cells do not contain data, they should remain unlocked.

Locking Numbers

Nov 9, 2006

my spreatsheet calculations work, but the overall thing is too large to print; i am running many numbers and formulas. I made them all finally refer to a small 'summary' box which i created...but when i try to transfer the box to a new worksheet so that i can print it and only it; it automatically has no references for the formulas on the new (blank) sheet, and comes up all errors. to the point, how do i lock the way a box appears (when it contains formulas) so that it will remain sensible after it is transferred elsewhere?

Conditional Cell Locking?

Mar 8, 2013

Is it possible to have a formula in a cell, based on the value in another cell, but if the other cell value is not true then allow for data entry in the cell

So
J10 executes a formula if the value in I10 (a list field) is 'Cash and Shares' =IF(I10="Cash & Share",ROUND(IF(AND(K10<>0,O10>0),K10/O10,0),0)).

However if the value of I10 is anything other than 'Cash and Shares' then do not execute the formula in J10 but allow users to enter another value.

Note: the cell needs to be locked. The worksheet will be protected and will allow users to Select Locked Cells and Unlocked Cells.
