Sometimes I need to copy something to the clipboard, then go to another sheet (or somewhere). When I get "there", I sometimes want to insert rows, without "inserting cut/copied cells" . . . . So I end up saving the worksheet to clear the clipboard, then inserting my rows.
Can I insert blank rows while maintaining my clipboard?
I have a list of model numbers that corresponds to part numbers i.e:
model number
part number
abc

I can type in A2 = ab and it autofills the model number abc, and have B2 automatically have the part number which is 123 filled in as well.
I would like to create a single excel file, which is composed by fragments of different (closed) excel fies (it should take some data from the files).
I have a Weight Watcher spreadsheet. I enter the Calories, Fat and Fiber and I get the # of points for that food. Then I keep put those points into the lower part of the spreadsheet where I track what I eat, and Excel does my simple math for me. What I want to do is keep a list of my foods, and their point value in my spreadsheet. I would like to be able to put the food name in Cell A1, the WW points in BI, and then be able to click a button with a macro that takes those two pieces of data and add them to bottom of my food list. I don't have a food list yet, I would assume I can just put it on sheet 2. I then want to be able to use lists in my cells to choose the food in the future. I need to be reminded how to make "dynamic named ranges. Today, I just need to know how to write the macro to copy and paste those two cells in the first open row at the bottom of my food list.

problem is, the spreadsheet matrix is huge, it's a 1043 x 1043 spreadsheet
And this is taking wayyy too long, i've been waiting for almost 2 days already..
here's the file :

(You start the macro using "run" command in "input" sheet)
So is there any way to speed it up?
Or if anyone got a supercomputer, could you help me process this? :p
I'm thinking about changing the 10^5 value into infinite value, but i can't find a way to display infinite value..
And here's some reference for Floyd's algorithm,

I have tried to split the algorithm to make it process one iteration at a time, but i've been waiting like 2 hours with no result,
and that's for 1 iteration, can't imagine how long it takes for 1043 iterations

I am using Excel 2007 and have a simple enough macro to paste data in to another sheet - simple is what I do best.
Sub Macro1()
'
' Macro1 Macro
With Sheets("data")
.Range("B3").PasteSpecial xlPasteAll
End With
End Sub
I am wanting to change this so that before it pastes any data into B3 it will delete all data from B3:AE22.
I have had a look around and found plenty to delete full rows or worksheets but not just to delete the data in those cells.
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?

Running the file on another computer the code does not protect the sheet. The strange thing is that if I go the Tools>Protection> the options is set to Unprotect. That measn that the code actually has protected the sheet but I am still able to make chages. If I manually unprotect and again protect the sheet, it is protected till the time close the file and open it again.

Excel file 1 has:
Sheet 1: Account numbers and balances
Sheet 2: Mapping information detailing what account in file 1 is to go to a different account number in file 2.
Excel file 2 has:
Lots of sheets where information is to be keyed in.
This is a very manual process with lots of data entry to input into accounting forms I send to our head office. The "file 2" has sheet protection on all sheets so that formats, data, columns etc etc cannot be altered and only certain fields updated.
I think I have successfuly written my scripts to loop through the account values and map those to all spots in all sheets they are referenced to on the mapping document, however I am getting an error message that the "cell or chart you are trying to change is protected and therefore read-only".
Basically I look through the sheet and look for my mapping code, if that matches, I add the balance to the exisitng value of the cell, in the next column.
i.e. if B2 has the corresponding code I will add the balance to the current value of cell C2.
This is an extract of the code where I am looking up the sheet:
Dim ws As Worksheet
For Each ws In Sheets
If Left(ws.Name, 2) "OP" Then
Dim rg As Range
Dim cl As Range
Set rg = Range("A1:IV65536")
For Each cl In rg
If ActiveCell.Locked = False Then
If cl = kessanid Then
cl.Offset(0, 1).Value = acctvalue
End If
End If
Next cl
End If
Exit For
Next ws
It may be that because the sheet is protected as a whole nothing can be done but I was hoping that because I am going to the specific cell which allows input I should be able to do this.
I've been given this before but unfortunately i lost a hard drive so all the codes i was given from folk on here have been lost.
I had one in particular, where it would protect my workbook when closing so when it was reopened the user had to use a password in order to change protected cells. This was because certain colleagues would forget to protect the workbook and left it open to accidental damage.

Excel 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.
