Protect And Hide Sheet In Workbook?
Apr 26, 2009I've stored all my on-line passwords (about 50 of them) in one sheet in an Excel workbook. I want to protect it so that if somebody somehow got access to it, they couldn't see the sheet, much less change anything.
I tried Tools/Protection/Protect Sheet and Tools/Protection/Protect Workbook, using a secret password. Then, nobody could change the data -- but they could still see it.
So then I hid the columns first, and then protected the sheet -- which did the trick. But that seems pretty cumbersome, because it involves two steps for me to open it up (unprotecting and then unhiding).
Is there a way to protect/hide in just one step so my sheet of passwords can't be seen by an intruder?

View 4 Replies View RelatedAttaching A Custom Toolbar To Workbook
Apr 14, 2009I have created a workbook and made a custom toolbar to perform the macro functions for the sheets in the workbook. Everything works great for me, but I want to attach the custom toolbar to the workbook so that whenever someone else pulls up the workbook they pull up the custom toolbar too.
I used the tools menu, clicked customize, toolbars, attach, selected the custom toolbar and clicked copy.
No toolbar appears.
I can select View, Toolbars, and select the custom toolbar, then the toolbar appears, but when I close the sheet the toolbar remains.
When someone else opens the sheet, the toolbar appears without any "buttons." It is an empty toolbar.
The help text isn't helping because the instructions for attaching a custom toolbar to a worksheet (tools/customize/toolbars/attach/copy) do not attach the toolbar to the workbook.

Excel 2007 :: Hide Sheets On Opening And Password Protect Viewing
Nov 1, 2009I have an Excel 2007 workbook which has five sheets in. I just wondered whether it is possible to hide all five of them when the workbook is first opened. Also I would like the user to be asked for a password when they wish to unhide a sheet, with the password being different for each of the sheets.
Is there also a way to do this which won't be affected by Excel disabling all Macros when the application initially opens.

View 2 Replies View RelatedHide And Password Protect The VBA Code So That They Can't Just Change The Pictures Visible Section To True
Nov 7, 2008I've used VBA to make a picture appear when all the correct answers have been entered and it all works well. However, not to be too mean to 15 year olds, many of my students can be devious little feckers, and I want to hide and password protect the VBA code so that they can't just change the pictures visible section to true. I can password protect the workbook and worksheet, but not the VBA.
I'm entering the Visual Basic editor and I can see my simple script. I then click Tools - VBproject properties - protection. I'm clicking the "Lock Project for Viewing" box then filling in the password and confirming the password and clicking OK. But I can still see and edit my script, despite protecting the sheet and workbook.

Protect The Workbook
Feb 15, 2010Excel 2007. I have the workbook structure protected with a password. When I open the file, the worksheets are sized to file the normal Excel window space. When I email the spreadsheet to a customer who also has Excel 2007, the worksheets are small and she has to use the arrows to navigate.
We tried changing her view and that didn't work. She does not have the arrows available to resize the window. The only way I could fix it for her was to remove the workbook structure protection. I'm nervous about leaving it this way for our entire customer base as they could unhide hidden sheets and even delete them. Has anyone else experienced this? One more thing, customers that have an earlier version of Excel have not had this problem. This workbook is save as an .xls to be backward compatible.
Protect Workbook From Ex-employees
Sep 19, 2008How can I protect by workbook from ex-employees and the competition from using (I am aware of the weak security measures Excel offers, but something is better than nothing)? Each worksheet is password protected to slow down novice Excel users. However, ex-employees know the password.

View 1 Replies View RelatedProtect 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.

How To Protect Multiple Sheets In Workbook
Jun 19, 2006How to protect multiple sheets in a workbook and not having to protect them 1 by 1. I have copied and pasted all the different macro's/visual basic script that has been posted for that purpose, but I can't get it to work and I'm always getting an error. The error from visual basic says "compile error: invalid outside procedure" and then the visual basic screen shows the following:
Range ("AM52")
If Ans >= 0 Then
"+."
It does not like the "AM52" part because it is highlighted in the error message.
Also, the error I get from recording my own macro step by step is "Run time error 40036" from visual basic.
