I would like to protect the worksheet from modification by other users except column A ( suppose A1: A15).
I have been doing this by removing Locked on format cell and then Protect Sheet on Review tab.
Is it the right way or there are other more reliable way?
I have the following forumla: =SUMPRODUCT(($C$13:$F$74>0)*1)
I need this formula to compute only if B13:B74=A4. I am not too sure how to add this in.
I did modify some codes inside my addin, then did save the modified addin file by pressing the save icon from the VBA window..........but i found that the addin file was saved without the modification made to it. so i lost all modification did to the file. i donot know what i did wrong ?
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have been modifying the options available on my right click menu, getting rid of about half of what was there and adding items I use quite often like Paste Values, Paste Formats, Paste Formulas, Sort..., AutoSum, and Format as Percent, as well as adding group dividers. I have it just the way I want it, but I have one issue. If the clipboard is empty, all of the paste buttons are disabled on the Standard toolbar and in the Edit menu as are the Paste and Paste Special... items on the right click menu, but the new paste items I added to my right click menu are still enabled. If I click on one, I get a "PasteSpecial method of Range class failed" error because I have no range selected. I got around this by adding On Error Resume Next to the macros of my added paste functions - not elegant, but functional. Is there a way to have those items appear grayed out and disabled on my right click menu when the clipboard is empty as opposed to my current workaround?
View 9 Replies View RelatedI have an Excel template with 10 Worksheet(tabs). 8 of the sheets have predefined charts built based on the data in first 2 sheets. Through a web application user downloads data on the first 2 sheets. A macro is then executed (at the end of the download) to Update (through Macro) the charts in the remaining sheets and the sheets are password protected. The idea here is that user can generate predefined charts from the downloaded data but cannot modify any information. In addition to that user need an ability to add additional sheets to generate custom reports/charts.
So my requirement is to protect the 10 predefined sheets from modification including the modification of sheet name/deletion of sheet but allow user to add additional sheets. Protecting the workbook does not allow user to add additional sheets. Protecting individual sheets doesn't prevent user from renaming the sheet names.

View 9 Replies View RelatedI have a small sub routine below I would like to make a slight modification to. The routine currently references formatting relative to the Offset statement in bold below. Instead, I would like the formatting to come from a cell address listed in a cell just to the left of the cursor when the statement is encountered.

way to save user-settings at runtime, preferably in the same or another module. For example: how can I save a bundle of variables such that the next time excel is started and the workbook is opened, the user can continue to work with his personal settings?
Background:
Using the macro, I am writing on atm, a user will be able to adjust the macro according to his input-samples. Here the columns and rows of an input can be varied to fit the macros requirements. It would be great if those settings could be stored, irrespectively of where the file currently resides. That is, best it would be, if the source-code itself could be changed ... maybe by adding another module?
i was able to setup a email code, which will automatically extract the unique row reference data and sends the email. However, i am struggling to add couple of things, i searched most of the web portals .. wasn't lucky.

2. i need to insert the default email signature during email draft ...
I have a macro that I found on the net for copying a filtered selection and copying to a new sheet. I would like to alter it slightly so that it just clears the sheet called 'Interval tasks' instead of deleting it and creating a new one.
View 8 Replies View RelatedI don't know if a macro is necessary, but the built in Insert -> Insert copied cells -> Shift cells down function can't accomplish what I require.
I've pasted in two example tables for what I'd like to do. For the first table, the data in column C is a name and the cells from columns D-Z, rows 7-10 is what I want to copy and paste from row 12, column D; row 13, column D; etc, etc. However, I want the full rows below the name in column C to move down when I paste from column D. Using the Insert function on the Insert blade only gives me the data in columns D-Z moving down.
The second pasted table gives an example of how I want it to look.

it's possible to set a "key" for a vlookup so that one of the parameters of that key can be any value? For example if the data set key used in the lookup contains a concatenation of 4 parameters (a_b_c_d), is there anyway to modify the lookup array key so that the "c" parameter can be anything, ie. something like a_b_*_d ?
View 3 Replies View RelatedI'm using a script that when you double click on a cell containing Data Validation > List it changes to a combo box that has an autocomplete/increased columns view...It's working great, however there are two small modifications I would love to do and am not having much success with. Currently, you double click the cell w/the Data Validation > List in it, it then changes to a combo box and you can auto complete using the keyboard or select the dropdown and choose from an increased list. However, I would like to be able to simply single click on the cell, have it change to the combo box and auto expand the list if possible.

I wanted to add the date of the last modification of the file to the printed pages, so I googled how to do it and found a useful answer on this from from 10 years ago. It said to press ALT+F11, then on the left side go under VBAProject, there go to ThisWorkbook and there paste the next code:
Code:
Private Sub Workbook_BeforePrint(Cancel As Boolean)
For Each wk In Worksheets
With ActiveSheet.PageSetup
.LeftHeader = "Last Modified on " & ActiveWorkbook.BuiltinDocumentProperties.Item("Last Save Time")
.CenterHeader = ""
[Code]....
Then I saved it and closed. Like I said, it worked perfectly.
The problem is that when I open the file after closing it, it does not appear, and I have to paste the code again every time I open it. Not only is this not comfortable, it also counts as a modification, so even if I haven't changed the work sheets themselves, just wanted to open and print it, it shows today's date.
My question is, who to I save it permanently so it will remain always after the first time I created it?
While we're at it, if there's a way for that code to appear on every NEW Excel file I create automatically
In sub which will convert file to PDF and save it to assigned folder and then attach it to email in outlook. All works fine.
However is is possible to modify the code to save fole to respective month folder ( as per current date and year)?
e.g. I have created folder Named 'Trial' in C drive . This has sub folders 2014, 2015, 2016, 2017, 2018 Each year folder will have sub-sub folders month wise like This has sub folders as Jan , Feb , Mar , Apr .... till Dec Now e.g. if date when the pdf was created is 23/4/14 then it is saved in C:Trials2014Apr automatically. Currently every year I keep creating new folders etc... bit primitive though.
I have created a form that allows users to input data to an excel sheet, and also will enable users to view the data once they are done.
Is there a way to unprotect the sheet using VBA so that the data can be written, and then protecting once the data has been input?
I've got about 50 worksheets in a workbook and I'd like to protect them all.
Problem however is that I've got buttons in my worksheets that insert rows, delete rows.
I've also got a dynamic chart with listboxes that select data.
When I protect my worksheets all this is disabled.
Is there a way around this?
This is what I've done so far:

Is there a way to just protect just a single cell, in order to lock & hide a formula within that cell, without having to password protect the whole worksheet?

I am trying to figure out a macro that will select all worksheets from 'KLKN':'KFSN' and protect the cells L45:L52 accross to AL45:AL52
Unfortunately I cannot select all worksheets and protect them, instead I would have to manually do this, or create a macros that will do it for me...
I am trying to protect all sheets on a Workbook Close event.
I don't want the user to even be able to Select the Loked cells so I set it up that way through formating of cells.
This is what I have tried:
Private Sub Workbook_BeforeClose(Cancel As Boolean)
Dim sh As Worksheet
For Each sh In ThisWorkbook.Worksheets
sh.Protect Password:="P@ssword", DrawingObjects:=True, Contents:=True, Scenarios:=True
ActiveSheet.EnableSelection = xlUnlockedCells
' sh.Protect Password:="P@ssword"
Next sh
End Sub
I even tried the commented out line in that postion instead of where it is now.
It does protect but still allows selection of locked cells.

I have a spreadsheet that everyone in my department uses. My boss has asked me to protect certain columns so that only I can edit them but leave others so that the rest of the depratment can use those.
I have tried locking the ones I am to use and unlocking the ones the others can use then protecting the document. This works well enough as far as it goes, however, it is combersome having to unprotect then reprotect it every time I need to work on it. Also, that method makes the drop down lists that we are using for easy sorting no longer function.
I have a very large workbook - there are only five sheets of this workbook that should be viewed by anyone. What I would like to do and just can't seem to find a solution is...
I would like to set the workbook so that when opening I use a password which will give me full access to anything in the workbook - upon read only, a user would be able to open the entire workbook without a password - but only view it's contents - not be able to do any adjustments.
I have locked cells which I do not want anyone to adjust the formulas to, then protected the sheet - this works, however, because there are so many sheets, it becomes very tedious to unlock and lock sheets to work in them.
I have a Sheet with some Macro Buttons for the boss to use.

I have a work sheet with formulars on column A,B,E and F,(from row 19-119) Column C and D are for inputing data. How do I protect the the columns with formulars at the same time be able to input in column c and D.When I try using protect worksheet it protects all including the one for imputing data..
I have a workbook and i have spent time protecting all the formula cells and allowing user to only be able to select unlocked cells (so they can quickly tab to where they need to input info).
I have lots of codes running and always use Activesheet=unprotect If i am modifying protected cells and then at the end of the code i put back the activesheet=protect.
HOWEVER
When i transfer this book to another machine or to someone else to run it on their machine - ALL of my protection GOES OUT THE WINDOW
Also - is there a way to hide or protect all my code so that users cannot modify it?
If so - how do i get it back to modify state when i want to edit it?
I'm trying to use the Tools|VBA Project Properties dialog box to stop folks from unhiding an xlveryhidden sheet, but even though I check the "lock" checkbox and input passwords in the password and the password verify boxes, Visual Basic fails to stop me from selecting the sheet in question from an Alt-F11 spawned VBA, and editing away.
