I understand that we can protect the VBA coding through check the "Lock project from viewing in the Tools>VBAProject Properties. However I'll still need to open some of the code for other users to customize the program while some of the important code are protected.
View 7 RepliesI have an excel file having part code,name,vendor and Qty ( Quantity ).
My problem is that I want to apply an excel formula to pick up that vendor code who have highest Qty of a part code.The condition is that S.No.should not be disturbed.This file is so large,but here I have taken an example,
I'm creating a worksheet that gives a list of part numbers based on the product part code. In most cases I can use the following.
=LOOKUP(O6,{0,1,2,3,4},{"NONE (M25)","SMP-55-001","SMP-55-004","SMP-55-008","SMP-55-014"})
so this gives a part number depending on what number is placed in O6. What I need to do know is look at 2 different cells and for each combination of numbers give a different part number. so if A1 is 2 and B1 is 3 give a certain result.
is there any hard code out there that protects formulas in a cell
i have a sheet with formulas down a column
that used once disappear
is there any way to code this so they are always there?
Is there a way to protect a VBE project using a macro instead of going to the properties and manually typing in a password? I'm using a macro that emails just one worksheet in my workbook (creates a new temp file, emails, and deletes it) but when the new file gets to the recipient the VBE project is unlocked.
I found a way to protect the worksheet before saving the temp file, so the worksheet is protected as it should be, but the project explorer window is completely open. Then anybody can see the passwords I'm using to protect the sheet in the first place. So I need to somehow re-protect the project before it saves and emails.
I would like to protect the VBA modules I have written in a spreadsheet. Is there any way of password protecting these (as there is with Excel workbooks/worksheets) -such that users can not see the VBA code unless they enter a password?

I am trying to design a tool which dynamically results in different cells depending on users inputs. Yet, I am willing to protect most of the cells to avoid any user involuntarily (or voluntarily!) modifying the formulas/contents of the calculated (and locked) cells.

i have an excel sheet where i enter company information including Zip code. the zip codes around here all start with 797 and end with numbers from 01 to 12
i am looking for a way to enter just the last 2 numbers and have it automatically insert the full zip
example:
line one i would enter 01 and 79701 would show up in the box.
I know there are ways to do this, just can't remember its been so long since I've had to use excel.
I'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.
Some sensitive data is held on worksheets that are used by people that do not have access to see the data.

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.

Is there any way to remove the first part of a string of text in a cell and save the second part?
The first part of the text string is a team code that has a variable number of numbers, capital letters and sometimes spaces. The second part of the text string is a variable number of words in a team name that all start with a capital letter and have lower case letters. Every line has a different team code and team name.
The original spreadsheet also has a column with just team code. Is there a way of using this column to "subtract" the team code from the text string to just leave the team name?
I have a spreadsheet with 2 worksheets. On the first "active parts" I have a list of active part numbers and on the second "All Parts" I have all of the parts available.

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.
What I am trying to do is automatically move the date received and the total qty received from the Rcvg. Log sheet to the RFMs Release sheet.
The problem is:
1) I don't know what I'm doing
2) On the Rcvg. Log several part numbers that are the same with different Qtys.
3) on the Rcvg. Log the are several part numbers that are the same using different programs.
What I would like to do is combine all the same part numbers with the same program add the total Qty received and paste the date received and total Qty into the RFMs Release sheet in the proper part numbers row.
Is this possible?
