Protect Worksheets & Set View Settings
Oct 18, 2006
I have a battery sizing workbook, which has various tables and active cell VBA routines, that enable the user to input a number and then select a cell from the table presented on the front worksheet. This will then display the solution including other data. I have now been requested to share the workbook and all I seem to do is lock it up and therefore stop and calculations. Therefore your assistance is required in two area's:-
1. How to protect the workbook and allow the user to select a cell on the front worksheet, without all the all the VBA routines appearing to grind to a halt! I can lock an hide all the subsequent worksheets without freezing the front worksheet.
2. I can hide all the toolbars, row and column headings under my Tools/Options which will display the worksheet neatly...... Therefore can I some how instruct the users Excel to turn these off when loading?

I have a large spreadsheet from which I need to create separate Reports by hiding various rows and columns. I have followed instructions for creating a couple of Custom Views (View tab, Custom Views, Add, Inserted Name, OK, Saved the document) but nothing happens apart from getting the message "Some view settings could not be applied". In fact none of the view settings were applied.

Is it possible to set the same print area and print settings i.e. Landscape and 1 page tall by 2 pages wide, across all worksheets in an excel file? I have a file with 365 worksheets. They all have the exact same layout and need to be printed off daily. I can set the print settings every day manually but was wondering if there is an easy way to do them all in one go?

I use a two monitor setup driven from a Radeon 9550 graphics card, but the problem I have occurs on a single monitor as well. When I open multiple workbooks or worksheets I can only view one at a time the other remains embedded behind the open window. Nothing I know of will let me view both at the same time.
If there are two open worksheets full size on the screen and I minimize one they both minimize. If I decide to close one workbook/sheet down all open workbooks/sheets close down as well. Can I view two workbooks at the same time? Can I close one down while keeping one open?

I am seeking a method of password protecting worksheets in a workbook. The users would all start on a sheet that has their names (A1 - A10) next to their names would be where they type in their password (B1 - B10). If their password is correct their assigned worksheet (Worksheet2) would be unlocked for editing.

I have used for some time the technique of having the worksheets protected and the (through buttons) call macros that Applicatition.Unprotect the sheet do something not allowed while sheet protected and then Application.Protect. They work. Then I read about UserInterfaceOnly and I wanted to use it. I tried unsuccessfully a sort of testing
Private Sub Workbook_Open()
Dim wSheet As Worksheet
For Each wSheet In Worksheets
wSheet.Protect "aPass", UserInterfaceOnly:=True
Next wSheet
End Sub
Code for three buttons on the same sheet. Very simple code to try whether previous code behaves as expected.
Sub FillValueActive()
Dim activeNum As Integer
activeNum = ActiveCell.Row
Range("A1").Offset(activeNum - 1, 0).Value = "This text shows filled"
End Sub .........................................

Here is what I try to achieve:
- I have a "Menu" worksheet with basic Hyperlink to Sheet1, Sheet2 etc.
- When I click on a link (or on the tab), I want a prompt asking for a password (different for each tab). I do not anyone who doesn't have the correct password to see the content of the worksheet.
(I don't know VBA and I couldn't modify the code to fit my needs)
Here is the code posted
Dim sLast As ObjectPrivate Sub Workbook_Open() 'Ensure Sheet1 is not the active sheet upon opening. If Sheet1. Name = ActiveSheet.Name Then Sheet2.SelectEnd

I have a file w/ individuals monthly sales information (per worksheet) that needs to be distributed in one mass email to the entire sales force. I want everyone to have access to the "Summary" tab, but individuals should only have access to their own "Details" tab. I know there has to be a way to accomplish via VBA. However, I'm not proficient in writing code.

I am looking for a macro that can do one of two things. I am not sure which way I want to go with this yet and how automated it should be. Either scenario will result in a significant time save.
Scenario One
1. Copy & Paste Special Values on the selected/active worksheet
2. Protect Selected Worksheet with password "1234"
3. Delete ALL worksheets except the selected/active worksheet from the file. Names of other sheets can be various and are not static
For example:
A workbook has the following: sheets1, sheet2, sheet3, sheet_unknown_name
If you are working in sheet1 the macro would copy paste special values the entire sheet, protect sheet1 with the password "1234" and delete any and all other sheets.
Scenario Two
1. Copy & Paste Special Values on the selected/active worksheet into a new workbook
2. Protect the new workbook with password "1234"
3. Rename the new workbook with the original workbook name adding either "em_" to the front or "_em" to the end of the filename
4. File, Send To, Mail Recipient as attachment.

3.I also need a password to un-protect the workbook and return it to the state described in # 1. above .

Some sensitive data is held on worksheets that are used by people that do not have access to see the data.
It would be most convenient to keep the data in these worksheets but hide it from view of the users.
Is there a way to password protect a users ability to unhide a column?

I 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"
Columns("O:O").Select
Selection.AutoFilter
Selection.AutoFilter Field:=1, Criteria1:=">0", Operator:=xlAnd
ActiveWindow.SelectedSheets.PrintOut Copies:=1, Collate:=True
Selection.AutoFilter Field:=1
Selection.AutoFilter
ActiveSheet.Protect DrawingObjects:=True, Contents:=True, Scenarios:=True _
, AllowSorting:=True, AllowFiltering:=True
End Sub

I would like to protect the intellectual property of an application and have read differing opinions of the merits of protecting VBA code. What are the opinions of the experts on this forum? Are the password breaker programs so advanced that protecting code is a waste of time and only a hinderance to debugging and troubleshooting?
I am using MS Excel 2003 (11.5612) on XP.
I apologize if this topic has already been covered on this forum. I searched but did not find exactly what I was looking for. I am happy to review an old post if one exists.

I have developed a process design application in Excel using User Forms to input data. The data are placed on a sheet of a workbook with the majority of the calculations being done by cell-to-cell calculations so that users can view the formulas if they so desire. This application works well in English. We want to use the same application in our German office where it has not worked well.
In order to trouble shoot the problems, I can go to the Region and Language setting under Control Panel and set it to German (Germany). This converts the number format to a period for the thousands separator and a comma for the decimal. This seems to create a lot of problems for VBA that I have not been able to sort out.
To simplify the problem I have written a very simple program. It has one User Form with two text boxes for number input, an Enter command button and a Close command button. Sheet 1 has a command button that opens the User Form. In the User Form, I enter a number in both text boxes and click Enter. VBA code then enters the number from Text Box 1 in Cell A1 and the number from Text Box 2 in Cell A2. Cell A3 has an equation that calculates the sum of A1 and A2. All cells are formatted as General.
The workbook works as expected in English. When I set my PC to German (Germany) the application works as expected when I enter an integer in the text boxes. However, if I enter a decimal such as, in the German format, 10,5 and 5,5, the numbers entered into the spreadsheet are text (left justified) and the sum is zero. I have to enter 10.5 and 5.5 to get the numbers to enter as actual numbers and give the correct sum.
How to make VBA work with the German settings?

I have a large file of data and the data looks like this repetitively, however, there are also useless data. But I figure out that the repeat data looks the same compare to the useless data. I need to extract the data that I only need. Is there a way to set a macro to search for a String from the beginning of the excel file, when the string is found, it will keep the 2 rows above and 56 row below it, then loop.
Here is an example of it:
A1 USELESS DATA
A2 USELESS DATA
A3 USELESS DATA
A4 USELESS DATA
A5 GOOD DATA
[Code] ....
The macro will start from A1 then go down till find STRING, then will keep 2 row above it which is A5+56 row below it which is A63.
Then continue at A64, then find STRING at A66 and do the same which is copy A64 (2 row above)+till A122 (which is 56 row below), then continue.
Since A123 to A155 does have any STRING, they will all be deleted..

Enable Macros to open it. No one else does.
Second, all the rest of us can click the print button to print the one single page that we are viewing. He says when he does this, that each time it automatically starts printing all the pages in the workbook. He wants to only print the one page.

Is there an easy way to print out the Red Green and Blue settings (i.e. numerical values) for the current pallette in a workbook?
I can set them fine and transfer them between workbooks but that's not quite what I need.
