Password Lock Hidden Column / Row

Feb 22, 2008

Is there a way to lock a column hidden so that it can't be unhidden? Maybe with a password? I tried saving the file with a password but I could still go in and "unhide" that column.

How To Lock Each Tab With Different Password

Oct 25, 2011

I have a excel document with 5 tabs (sheets) and, because different people work with a different tab (sheet), I want to lock each tab (sheet). I want the tab to be visible on the tab bar but when you click on it you will not be able to see the content of that tab (sheet) until you provide the right password (each tab with a different pasword).

Lock Rows Unless They Are Hidden Or Unhidden By Macros?

Jul 15, 2014

The small attached "Demo2" file indicates my problem. In the "Scorecard" sheet I'm using macros driven from listbox menus to hide or unhide rows on the "Tasks" sheet. It is VITAL that the rows on the "Tasks" sheet not be deleted or have new rows inserted. But, if I Protect them then the list box macros won't function. Is there a macro that will allow these macros to hide or unhide rows without allowing a user to add or delete these rows in the "Tasks" sheet? If possible a simple "global" solution is preferred as I have 100+ If/Then entries to contend with...

Password Protecting Hidden Sheets

Jul 25, 2007

I am using some VBA I found here to password protect a hidden sheet. It works perfectly for 1 sheet, but I am trying to hide 6 but am having problems. Under the HideSheets part I've modified it fine, by using


Sub HideSheets()
'Set worksheet to Very Hidden so that it can only be unhidden by a macro
Worksheets("Confidential1").Visible = xlSheetVeryHidden
Worksheets("Confidential2").Visible = xlSheetVeryHidden
Worksheets("Confidential3").Visible = xlSheetVeryHidden
End Sub.........

Lock Cells, Protect Sheet With Password & Time Stamp

Jul 18, 2007

I 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.

Assign Password To A Hidden Sheet, Only 1 Cell Populated

Dec 11, 2006

This is my input for password prompt:

Sub CommandButton1_Click()
Dim wSheet As Worksheet

On Error GoTo ErrHandler

Currently, my excel is protected with a password "PSWD" when users open the file. In my vba script, I have a function that can unprotect my excel without any password input box to the users. This method is to unprotect the file and allow users to do any formating columns and rows tasks, such as add or delete cells. After users finish their job, the file will be protected back. The function is such as below:

Dim wSheet As Worksheet
For Each wSheet In Worksheets
Application.ScreenUpdating = False
If wSheet.ProtectContents = True Then
wSheet.Unprotect Password:="PSWD"
Else

My questions are:

1. How I can create a hidden sheet that has one cell populated only?

2. How can I assign the password that the user enters at the "TextBox1" (first code) to a cell of of the hidden sheet? Do I have to modify the first code?

3. For the second code, how am I going to assign the value to at the wSheet.Unprotect/Protect Password:="..." with whatever the user has previously chosen as a password that refers at the hidden sheet?

Opening Password Protected/hidden Worksheets By The Manager

Oct 4, 2007

I've looked through this wonderful sight and haven't found one close to my project. I am a bit rusty on VB programming. I am working on workbook that contains multiple worksheets. Each worksheet is hidden and is accessible with a login and password so that only a specific user can access. My question is: How do I modify this so that the manager can open the workbook and view ALL worksheets without having to enter the login name and password for all of his users? Any help would be great. Thank you!!

Lock In A Title On Column Allowing Sorting

Jan 29, 2009

I am trying to create titles for columns. I can do that by just creating them in the cells above the data. The problem is that the titles sort into the data using the sorting feature. When I lock any cells and protect them, the sorting is locked out. Can I use some sort of header over the columns that remains in place where I can still sort the data below, by clicking on the column and sorting?

Format All Cells In All Sheets To Protection Hidden On Visible And Hidden Tabs

Feb 28, 2014

I am trying to format all cells on all sheets (hidden or otherwise) as "Locked" so when the sheets are protected the user can't see the formulas. This macro individually selects every sheet in the book and applys the formatting. Is there a way to modify this code to accomplish the same thing without having it actually select every sheet? The only reason it is an issue is that after running the macro you end up on the last sheet in the book.

Last Cell Used In Column When Rows Are Hidden

Apr 14, 2007

1. find the last cell used in a column when the rows that contain the data are hidden. I tried using Range("A65536").End(xlup).Select. but when the rows are hidden it doesn't give me the last cell used.

2. I am trying to restrict my search to just one row. When I try using the cells.find function it looks for the whole sheet but I just want it to search for some particular data in just one row or a specified range.

Column Numbers To Adjust When Rows Are Hidden

Feb 12, 2014

I have multiple tables that populate with data based on a combination of metrics that are tied to various dropdown menus. Whenever a combination of metrics yields a row without a value in at least one cell, then that row is automatically hidden. My problem is that while the rows are hidden, the column number's don't adjust. For example, if row 3 is hidden in a table with 5 rows, then the column numbers appear as 1, 2, 4, 5 (the table will shift from 5 rows to 4).
