I am trying to use the EnableMacros. zip script located here {url} But I am having a hard time making it work!
1. I have copied the module in EnableMacros.zip and imported it into my workbook.
2. I have placed identical code in my workbook's ThisWorkbook as is in the EnableMacros.zip's ThisWorkbook.
3. I have copied Sheet1 from EnableMacros.zip titled "Info Sheet". In MY workbook it is sheet7, but it is titled the "Info Sheet" in the EnableMacros.zip.
4. I have also copied sheet6 from EnableMacros.zip into my workbook and titled it "LoadScreen". In EnableMacros.zip the sheet is titled "Sheet1"

I have a user that keeps a maintenance log in an Excel worksheet and sends an updated copy once a week to a board member. Two weeks ago, the board member started complaining that he was prompted to enable/disable macros on opening and became worried when my user stated that no macros were used in the book. He is now concerned that we have sent him a virus.
I know the file is clean because I've scanned it, and when I look at the file in VB, there are no modules or classes present just the Sheets 1-3 and the ThisWorkbook file. None of these objects have any code in them. My user does have some macros in PERSONAL.XLS but they are not used in the workbook in question.
No one else gets the prompt for enabling/disabling macros. Even if I set my security to prompt for any macros, I get no message. I'm convinced that there must be some setting in his Excel that is causing this individual to get this message. Is there anything else other than a macro that would cause this?
On several of my worksheets, I'm asked if I want to disable/enable the macros but there are none associated with that particular worksheet- matter of fact, none of my worksheets have macros unless pivot tables count, so why am I being prompted in that way?
I have a couple spreadsheet Excel 2003 that I have to Email, I use a few macros with these spreadsheets. The Macros are kept in my personal workbook. When I Email these sheets does the end user see the warning enable macros or do they just see the sheet as is. I am mailing the whole workbook but macros are in my personal workbook. If they see the warning is it possible for me to Email so they will not have to contend with that?
1) Force user to enable macros. 2) keep three worksheets very hidden all the time. 3) passwrd protect vba
I have been using this code to force user to enable macros but this unhides all sheets other than "macros not enabled" sheet. I need three worksheets to remain very hidden all the time. How do I do this.
Option Explicit Dim ws As Worksheet Private Sub Workbook_BeforeClose(Cancel As Boolean) Worksheets("Macros Not Enabled").Visible = True For Each ws In Worksheets If ws.Name "Macros Not Enabled" Then ws.Visible = xlVeryHidden Next End Sub Private Sub Workbook_Open() For Each ws In Worksheets If ws.Name "Macros Not Enabled" Then ws.Visible = True Next Worksheets("Macros Not Enabled").Visible = xlVeryHidden End Sub
I have been looking at Dave's Script found in this post Determining if macros are enabled It works just like i want it too. But when I try and use it in my workbook with differnt sheet names it doesnt work. I have even tryed to rename the sheets in the example file and it stops working. My sheets are as follows:
Sheet1 (JI) Sheet2 (GC) Sheet3 (ET) Sheet4 (SV) Sheet5 (JB) Sheet6 (P) Sheet8 (Info Sheet) <----This is where the Notice to turn on Marcos is Sheet9 (D)
I have the following code in Module2
Public bIsClosing As Boolean Dim wsSheet As Worksheet Sub HideAll() Application. ScreenUpdating = False For Each wsSheet In ThisWorkbook.Worksheets If wsSheet.CodeName = "Sheet8" Then wsSheet.Visible = xlSheetVisible Else wsSheet.Visible = xlSheetVeryHidden End If Next wsSheet Application.ScreenUpdating = True...................
the system i'm creating involves many user ... some may know how to decode the system esp. on the startup ... if they click disable macro they can view, edit and delete important data in the system ... can somebody guide me on how to automatically enables macro on excel file on startup???
I've tried: - setting security to low - but got auto reset by administrator.
I have a spreadsheet with 2 combo boxes - Combobox 1 enables a user to specify if they want to look at the data on the sheet by week or month - it has just 2 options - "select by week" or "select by month"
The list in combobox 2 changes based on the selection in combobox1 - so if you select "select by week" , a date list by week shows up.
Combobox 2 is supposed to run a macro which updates some backend pivot tables. there are 2 types of backend pivottable - weekly tables and monthly tables.
What i am not sure about is how to get the selections in combobox 2 to run either the weekly macro or the monthly macro based on if combobox1 is set to week or month ...?
So I have a Workbook that I want to make read-only/protect after a certain date. I also want to force the user to have macros enabled. So far I have the following script, but despite changing it to read-only it doesn't seem to do anything. I have also tried to enable protection on the sheets after that date, but am getting errors.
I have been using Erik's fantastic "Force Enable Macros" code (exactly as it appears)...
force enable macros & ASK to save changes (SOLUTION)
...with the desired results (and comfort) under Excel 2003.
The code works under Excel 2007. However, if there is another workbook open at the sametime (regardless of whether Workbook two has macros or not), I get an Excel "crash";
Code: Microsoft Office Excel has encountered a problem and needs to close.
[ ] Recover my work and restart Microsoft Excel There is also a Event ID 7001 in the Event Viewer. I have run Excel diagnostics and there are no issues.
In reference to my other topci here: Userform Error
In this workbook I have successfully made it act like a userform calculator, the user does not ever see the actual sheets in the workbook, their only interface is the Userform calculator I created.
This is exactly how I want it, they do not need to see the sheets, nor do I want them to.
This leads me only to my next problem... Some of the users obviously wont have Macros automatically enabled, what I am wondering is, is there a way to put the normal "Enable Macros" button which appears along the top of a macro containing workbook when opened, I want to put this button into a userform like display without showing the workbook at all.
So here the process I envision:
1. User double clicks the file 2. It opens and automatically goes invisable (like it does already) 3. If the user does not have macro enabled, a userform like box appears and says "Please enable Marcros to user" with a button below for "Enable" and "Exit" 4. If exit is pressed excel closes 5. If enabled is pressed Macros are enabled and then they will automatically see my calculator userform like normal.
As you see, at no point do I want them to see excel or a workbook, just userforms so its not like they are using excel at all.
I have searched around the net and found a few ideas to tackle this, mainly one that has a "Prompt" workbook that shows when macros are disabled, but that is not ideal for me. However perhaps I could just edit this "prompt" code thing for my situation?
Here is the prompt sheet code I talked about:
Code: Option Explicit Private Sub Workbook_Open() With Application
[Code]....
How to use:
Open an Excel workbook Select Tools/Macro/Visual Basic Editor in the VBE window, select View/Project ExplorerSelect the This Workbook module Copy and paste the code above into this ModuleNow select File/Close and Return To Microsoft Excel Don't forget to save your changes...
I have a question concerning Macros and the Disable/Enable prompt. My boss has a spreadsheet which has been used for years and he recently wanted to and did remove the macros from the spreadsheet (they were no longer necessary), but the disable/enable prompt still appears when the spreadsheet is opened. I replicated this in a test spreadsheet with a simple insert line macro and received the same results. Is there a way to remove the macros and the disable/enable prompt once they are removed? I know about setting the security to low to not see the prompt, but I would think that once the macros are deleted, the prompt should not appear any more.
I have converted an Excel file from 2003 to 2007. The file now has a .xlsm extension as it contains macros. I have "enabled all macros" and "trusted access to the VBA project object model". Whilst open, I have tested the macro buttons and they work.
I then close the file and re-open it, and the macro's will not work. A message appears along the lines of "macros are anabled" or "macro is not found". I have double-checked the settings and everything appears normal.
I want the user of a file to be able to click on a particular cell and if they right click an option 'Change' will appear on the list of options and on clicking it a macro is enabled.
I saved the workbook as Macro enabled workbook in 2007. Also changed the security level to 'Enable all macro'. But the Macro buttons on the developer tab still shows disabled. Also not able to open VBA window with Alt+F11 key.
I have Excel file that is linked to Access Database. Everytime the user opens the file, there is pop up message that warns the user we there to enable the macro or to disable it. I want to force the user to enable the macro or even better if I can make disappear this warning and automatically enable the macro. See attached for more details.
I am looking for a code that would enable switching of sheets. For example, on Sheet1 (Master Sheet) I have got Industry1 to Industry3 and the companies within the Industries are on Sheet2 to Sheet4. When someone clicks Industry1 on Sheet1, it should navigate to Sheet2 (where it gives a list of companies within the industry), and when Industry2 on Sheet1 is clicked, it should navigate to Sheet3 and so forth..
what the code to auto enable a macro? I have tasks running on my computer. Everytime they run, I have to click on enable macro. I thought there was a way to automate this, but I can't find the code......
I'm working on a macro for work. It's a simple workbook with about 10 tabs. I would like for the user to open up the workbook but it not have the prompt foir enabling or disabling macros. Just on this one sheet, not other macros on other sheets.
I need my users to always enable macros when they open my workbook. Is there a way I can tell excel to enable macros and skip this initial question for users?
I have a macro-enabled workbook, in sheet1 i have two columns Country and Codes, they are in column C and D respectively. I used vlookup formula in generating the codes of the countries pasted in column C, they are being looked-up in sheet2 in column C and D as well. I already have 100000+ rows in sheet 2 under column C and D that's why the file is now heavy. Is it possible to encode column C and D in sheet 2 but still can be looked-up? or is there any other way to minimize the file size.
I am trying to crack away to protect my workbook, by forcing users the enable macros on launching.
What I am trying to do is if Workbook_BeforeSave runs a routine called DoIt. This calls HideAll, saves, then calls ShowAll al whilst not updating. (ie so the user is non the wiser and the computer does not asked to save again if no changes are made).
The reason I am trying this is so that if the user closes the document, it will not ask them again to save. Instead it has preserved the state in the HideAll place (ie all important worksheets are VeryHidden.
It is only by enabling Macros on open can the ShowAll make them visible again.
Below is the code I am using and it works, except it seems the Application.EnableEvents = False in the DoIt macro does not seem to be doing what it should.
very dearly love to get an answer as it is driving me up the wall!
Module 1:
Public bIsClosing As Boolean Dim wsSheet As Worksheet
Sub HideAll() Application.ScreenUpdating = False For Each wsSheet In ThisWorkbook.Worksheets If wsSheet.Name = "Warning" Or wsSheet.Name = "Authorise" Then wsSheet.Visible = xlSheetVisible Else wsSheet.Visible = xlSheetVeryHidden End If Next wsSheet Application.ScreenUpdating = True...............................
I need a macro that I can have in any workbook enabling me to protect / unprotect the workbook that I have currently opened with a set password (let say "Password")
I would link this macro to a button in excel 2002. I have try the following but it doesnt work
Would it be possible that the button (first) works (second) understand whether or not protect / unprotected and do the opposite?
Sub Protect Activeworkbook.protect password:="password", structure:=FALSE, Windows:=false End Sub
