i need code to type in the open program and hit enter.
I am having an issue with a macro to open password protected workbooks. The macro works just fine in opening the files and whatnot, but for some reason it prompts me to enter the password again once the file has been opened. Funny thing is I can either hit OK or hit Cancel and it goes to the next file. All files open correctly, I was just curious as to why this is happening and how to correct it?

I've only used VBA to expedite Excel processes, so this is my first exploit into using it for something else. So there's a radio program I enjoy listening to. It's not local, so I have to stream it online. I got a job recently, and I can no longer listen to the program during the day (my job doesn't allow streaming audio). So basically to hear the program, I have an internet explorer add-on called freecorder that records streaming audio. Basically what I've done till now is start recording the streaming radio before work and then stop recording when I get home. That creates quite a large file, so I'd like to set up a macro that does the following:
1) Open internet explorer at noon
2) Go the website from which the radio station streams
3) Click the button that starts freecorder recording
4) At 3 o'clock click the button that stops recording
I am looking for an example of some type of tables that are used in combination with programming in VBA. I know some about excel and some about programming, but I don't know a lot about both. A programmer was telling me that I could use some type of table that could be updated via a basic excel user to run a program in VBA in the background of excel. This user could update the table when things changed and make the program look for those changes. I am not sure how this works so I am asking for any example anyone has out there to give me an idea on how it works.

I need to be able to open them all and change one cell in each file, save it and close.

I want to know if when you open an excel file from the desktop is it possible to have that paticular file open in a new Excel program instead of one that is already opened. A more specific senerio is that I have Excel running a program and if i open from the desktop it opens it in that paticular excel program. I can open excel a second time and have to seperate excel programs running. Is it possible that when I open a paticular excel sheet from the desktop that it opens in a new excel program besides the one that is already running.

I have recently written some programming in a spreadsheet (1) which, on opening, opens up another spreadheet(2), ammends this spreadsheet(2), and then closes it before the user can start using the original one(1). This is done to monitor the usage. The information added into the atomatically opened spreadsheet(2) includes date and time of opening and the users id as well as adding 1 to counter cells. Both .xls files are located on the same server and I dont want people to catch on to the monitoring and if they do I dont want them to then go into this file(2) and remove their information.
If I password protect this file(2) it then promts to enter a password when it runs at the startup of the initial spreadsheet(1) which is no good as it would defeat the purpose if the user knew the password. Is it possible to add a few lines into the code (see below) after it initiates the opening of the usage file?
Private Sub workbook_open()
Application. ScreenUpdating = False
Workbooks.Open Filename:= _
"S:Newman CommonCATEGORY MANAGEMENT - RangesEPoS Usage.xls"
Dim Counter As Integer
Counter = Cells(2, 7)
Counter = Counter + 1
Cells(2, 7) = Counter
Cells(Rows.Count, "BV").End(xlUp).Offset(1, 0) = Now
Cells(Rows.Count, "BW").End(xlUp).Offset(1, 0) = Application.UserName
ActiveWorkbook.Save
ActiveWindow.Close
Application.ScreenUpdating = True

I am trying to log on to an FTP site and post a file through Excel VB. I have managed to open a new Explorer window and direct it to the URL, but I don't know what to do next. After navigation to the URL a Pop-Up Window comes asking for UserName and Password and I don't know how to supply it and click submit.
After I have completed that I will need to give the path of the file, click post, and close the window when it is done.
Here is what I got so far:

I currently have a problem when retrieving data from an external document that is password protected. The below routine causes Excel to request the password to the file multiple times. Using the 'SendKeys' function provides a slight workaround although I am very keen to remove this. It also doesn't appear to update links once the routine has run though a couple of the 'For' loops.
I have it set so that the user has to input the first password request, but the 'SendKeys' simply hits enter for the rest of the requests. This doesn't stop the cells from being updated for the first run of the 'For m' routine but can fail on the following runs. Sometimes the second loop works, sometimes it doesn't and the user will have to manually update the links through the 'Edit Links' tool.
I tried turning Application.DisplayAlerts to false after the first password request but that didn't stop it from appearing. If it had, I was going to use the ActiveWorkbook.UpdateLink Type:=xlExcelLinks command to allow the user to update the links at the end.
Code:
Private Sub CommandButton1_Click()
'Application.ScreenUpdating = False

View 2 Replies View RelatedI have a macro that opens Spreadsheet_A, copies the contents to Spreadsheet_Master, closes Spreadsheet_A, then repeats the process for Spreadsheet_B then ss_C then ss_D etc etc etc.....
Each spreadsheet is password protected, and the password is the same for all spreadsheet to stop casual browsing only. I have set the password.
When I run the macro, I have to type the password in each instance, ie 20 or more times for 2 or more files.
Anyone know the code to insert so the spreadsheet opens without my typing the password.
[It's Excel 2007, but I presume the same code as Excel 2003]
I am just wondering if it is possible to insert a module or a code such that it is user specific.
In detail, there are two types of users: Administrator and User.
If it were administrator, it should ask for a password. If user, it should give the read-only or a protected form of the spreadsheet.
I just need the workbook to pop-up with a msgbox of administrator/user with a radio button or a select button. If administrator, it should ask for a password. Also, disabling the macros should not open the spreadsheet as making this would lead to nothing.
I have an Excel application (Excel 2003) which is stored in the default Program Files folder by the Installer; for example: c:program fileszxchello.xls. The problem I am running into is this file opens as Read Only in Vista and this is interfering with the running of the application. There is no problem opening the file normally in Windows XP.
I have been able to narrow down the cause of this to the User Account Control system in Vista - if I turn OFF User Account Control, the Excel file opens normally and my application functions normally. Is there another option to open the Excel file without turning OFF User Account Control because some users may find it unacceptable to turn OFF this security feature. Ofcourse, one option is to install the application in another location, outside the Program Folder, and the file would open normally, but the Packaging Wizard that I am using to package the application does not allow me to install the application in any other location and thus, the application installs in the Program Folder and I am running into this problem of the Exel file opening as Read Only. Is there a way out of this situation where I can open the file normally (not as Read Only)?

I know of the password protect feature to open a excel file or workbook, but does anyone know if this can be done for opening a worksheet.
I want to be able to view a worksheet after a password is entered, so therefore different worksheets have different passwords.

Now i have forgot the password for opening the file. Is there any other way of opening the file without password or using a Macro.
