Jan 12, 2007I have a sheet that is password protected. I have this code attached to a command button. It will unlock the worksheet, autofilter it, print it, unfilter it, and password protect the sheet again. However it is protecting it without a password. I need to have it protected with the password so that someone will not be able to just go to tools to unprotect the sheet.
Private Sub CommandButton1_Click()
ActiveSheet.Unprotect "rainforest"

Selection.AutoFilter
Selection.AutoFilter Field:=1, Criteria1:=">0", Operator:=xlAnd

Jul 12, 2013I have a spreadsheet with over a hundred tabs, each of which need to be password protected (same password).
I found code on CFO.com that got me half way there. It protects all the spreadsheets, but it does not password protect the macro itself, meaning that anybody can step into the macro and unlock everything at the click of a button.
The code looks like this.
VB:
Sub ProtectAllSheets()
For Each ws In ActiveWorkbook.Worksheets
ws.Protect Password:="secret123"
Next ws
MsgBox "All Worksheets Protected"
[Code] ....
What can I do to prevent people from stepping into the macro, or prompt a password to actually use the macro itself?

Mar 4, 2007Stumbling over syntax on what should be easy. I want to password protect the active sheet using plain vanilla user input box; and then unprotect ALSO via an input box. Doesn't matter about masking the input with **** or whatever. Based on responses below, here is macro code I used:
To protect the sheet:
Sub ProtectSecurity()
Dim pword As String
pword = InputBox("Enter Password", "Password")
ActiveSheet.Protect pword
End Sub

To Unprotect the sheet:
Sub UnprotectSecurity()
Dim pword As String
pword = InputBox("Enter Password", "Password")
ActiveSheet.Unprotect pword
End Sub
Password Protect Columns - Hide And Protect Ability To Unhide
Jan 17, 2013Some sensitive data is held on worksheets that are used by people that do not have access to see the data.

Is there a way to password protect a users ability to unhide a column?
Macro To Unprotect Sheet Unlock Cells And Protect Worksheet With Same Password
Jan 23, 2012I have been really trying to get this sorted myself and I can get it to work with one exception. I can't get the sheet to lock with a password. It locks, but if I try to unlock it again, it does so without prompting me to enter a password.
Essentially I am wanting to unprotect two sheets, unlock the cells that were previously locked (so users couldn't enter data in them when the sheet is protected), then reapply the same password to protect the sheet, but now they will be able to enter data in the unlocked range of cells).
The second macro is to reverse the changes made in the first and 're-lock' the unlocked cells) (and again apply the same password to the sheet).
this is the code I have used.
Sub PART_YEAR()
Sheets("2012 Calculator 1 week").Select
ActiveSheet.Unprotect "taado"
Range("D20:D23").Select
Selection.Locked = False
Selection.FormulaHidden = False
Sheets("2012 Calculator 2 week").Select
[Code]...
I am assuming I have superfluous code in there, in addition to my mistake with the reapplication of the password.
Running A Password Protected Macro Remotely
Jan 26, 2007I have a macro in a workbook (good start) as follows:
Sub UnhideSheets()
' Set to Auto Calc mode
With Application
.Calculation = xlAutomatic
End With
' Asks for a password (must be "unhider")
Dim mypass, response As String
mypass = Application.InputBox("This macro requires you to enter a password to proceed." & vbCrLf & "Please enter password below.")
' If password is correct
If LCase(mypass) = "unhider" Then
' Unhides all sheets
Dim i As Integer
For i = 1 To Sheets.Count
Sheets(i).Visible = True
Next i
' Then tells you that all is OK
response = MsgBox("All sheets unhidden", 0, "Macro run")
' Otherwise
Else
' Tells you that there is a problem (Unauthorised to continue)
response = MsgBox("Sorry, you are not authorised to use this macro.", 16, "Macro stopped")
' hides the sheet again
Sheets("BSG Only!").Visible = xlHidden
Sheets("CC07").Activate
' And ends the "if"
End If
End Sub
This unhides the "very hidden" sheets that make the book work and is password protected because I want to limit the people who can see this data.
What I would like to do, however, is call this macro remotely from another procedure in a separate book, which can only be accessed by those who are authorised to see the hidden data.
Essentially, then, my question is: "How do I call the protected procedure without the user having to enter the password each time, as they must be authorised to have access to the procedure that calls the protected procedure?"

Protect Workbook No Password
Jan 11, 2010I have a workbook that contains a series of macros designed to compare various reports and spit out a report. I don't want my users to have to insert a password, but I want to keep my workbook protected. I've already protected the macros in the VBA Properties, so those are pretty safe, but the worksheets in the workbook are susceptible to changes that will hose my macros.
Setting the workbook to "Read Only" in Properties on our shared drive helps, but any user can change that at will. Within Excel, going to Options, Security, I can set a password so no-one can modify that workbook, but that pops up a password box when they open the workbook. I'd like to NOT have the password box pop up unless I need to make changes. Is there a way to do that? I've looked on the internet but can't find a solution on this one.

Protect The Worksheet With Password
Jun 7, 2008I had the thought that maybe it would be possible to have a worksheet that is not protected when saved but when it is opened there would be a sub-routine under Sub_Workbook Open that would step through each sheet and assign a random password. And when the workbook is saved it is saved without passwords again.
In this way there would be nothing for a password cracker to pick at. The only flaw I see would be that the password to open the VBA module would need to be static and this would open up the programming to change and remove. But wouldn't this be effective against most users who would only know about the utilities to open the passwords and not the programming behind excel.
Password Protect Tabs
Mar 23, 2004I have one workbook with different Tabs that are tied to a master sheet.

Can this be done?
Password Protect W/ Expiry
Jun 18, 2006We are making a complex financial calculator that we will let licensees use for a limited time.
The calculator could be an online php form, however we decided to go with excel for its ease to program the code required.
Question is:
Since the licensees are allowed to use the calculator only for a short period of time, we want to be able to password protect it with an expiry date.
Meaning that if they want to use it pass their time limit, they would need to re-enter a new password that we would provide them.
Is there such an application made for excel worksheet?

http://www.excelforum.com/excel-programming/634024-cell-range-protect-unprotect-toggle.html
When you protect a worksheet via VBA then unprotect it the conventional way via: Tools>Protection>Unprotect Sheet. Why is it when you unprotect a worksheet in this way Excel does not ask you for a Password. You simpy only have to select Unprotect Sheet and the sheet is unprotected which for me kinda defeats the object.
Protect Sheet With Password In Workbook
Mar 15, 2012I'm looking to password protect the sheets in my workbook (using vba) but I can't seem to join this up with allowing users to edit scenarios.
If I record the protection I get this:
Code:
ActiveSheet.Protect DrawingObjects:=False, Contents:=True, Scenarios:= _
False
I normally use:
Code:
ActiveSheet.Unprotect Password:="password"
I just need to combine the two. Adding the password before 'DrawingObjects' or at the end doesn't seem to work.
