Apr 17, 2014I am working in the D3:K20
I have set my column width at 3.6 and row height at 19.6
I want to protect this area so that the column width or row height don't change.

Protecting Code Against Work Arounds
Feb 3, 2009I've written some code that passwords a sheet, and that code needs to be entered each time you access the sheet because you can carry out any changes.
I've written it so that the password changes every 30 days, and it's protected from the ctrl + break function.
The code will be activated after a certain date (28/02/09). Is it possible to add a bit of code to this, so that once the date has passed 28/02/09, it cannot be 'tricked' by changing the system clock to before this date?
Protecting A Worksheet That Contains Macros
Jun 5, 2009I need to protect the attached to stop people deleting the formulas. The problem is that there are hidden macros and when i protect the cells the conventional way they stop working and i lose all the data in the IAS sheet. I have highlighted all the cells in yellow that i want to be able to change once protected.
At this stage I would just like some one to explain how to protect it. Ideally I want to do it normally (unlock the cells individually that I want to remain unprotected, then protect the whole sheet). If its not then presumably its a macro alteration that's needed?? don't do it at this stage as depending on how it will be protected will mean that i need to make a few adjustments.
Password Protecting More Than One Worksheet
Dec 22, 2008I have set up a workbook with a tab for each month. in the workbook open module i have the following code (below marked Password protect) that allows for three passwords to unlock certain ranges of cells, what i would like to do is for this code to apply to each worksheet.
Now in the main this works except for one range of cells H11 to H1000, on every sheet all cells are locked except for this range which is unlocked in every sheet except sheet one when you enter the password staff. The only other code i have is for a time stamp (marked time stamp) so that i can monitor when the user has entered data. this again has reference to the sheet name.
their must be something really straight forwad i am doing wrong here as everything works on an sheets except this range being locked.
I am in excel 2002 but my users are on 98, which is why i am protecting in VB rather than using the prtect range option.
Protecting Worksheet - With Password
Oct 26, 2009modify the code below to do the following:
When I recorded this macro shown below, I entered in a password (twice) as prompted by Excel 2003.
So when I run this code, it seems to work fine. However, when I want to unprotect the worksheet, I am not prompted to enter in the password.
modify the code so that when I need to unprotect the worksheet, I am prompted to enter in the password?

Protecting Worksheet But Only Cells
Jul 21, 2006I have a spreadsheet with about 2000 lines of vba code. My application needs to be protected so users don't mess themselves up; however, I really only needs the contents of cells to be protected. I have many macros that run, and in order to do this I need to unprotect and re-protect the worksheets. My problem is this: when I re-protect the worksheets, everything is locked up. I would like to allow users to change column widths, hide and un-hide rows, etc. I can't find the parameters needed to do this more controlled type of locking. Is there a list somewhere of all the parameters that can be passed to the Protect method? Here is my current subroutine:
Sub ProtectSheets()
Dim ws As Worksheet
For Each ws In ActiveWorkbook.Worksheets
ws.Protect Password:="password"
Next
End Sub
Using Text Box Whilst Protecting A Worksheet
Jan 25, 2008I wish to protect a worksheet to prevent loose fingered people from altering formulas, but I want the "text box" that is below these formulas (within the same worksheet) to be able to be typed in.
But when I protect the worksheet, the text box cannot be typed in.
Is there a way around this to allow typing in the text box whilst the sheet is protected?

Jan 30, 20091)I am trying to specify the area of a worksheet, for example columns a-z and rows 1-1000 but I am having great difficulty in doing this. I have tried selecting the last row and shift>end>down, Edit >all then Edit>delete but nothing happens. The screen just flickers and all the rows are still there. Even specifying the print area does not do it. Any answers?
2) Any ideas how to sum a datalist by text in a box? I.e if there are 1000 rows selected how amny are filled. If there is a way of selecting 'any text' this would work but there is no constant value/text to use.
BTW I am using Excel 2000

Macro To Open Worksheet To A Predefined Area
May 22, 2007I have a workbook which has a variety of command buttons with assigned macros, one of which is a product detail button which redirects to a new worksheet.
Is it possible to be able to click on the button, display a new window (the new worksheet), but only display a section of it?
For example, I have 5 products. Each of the five products are detailed on the same worksheet and I have a button for each. I would like Button 1 to open up the details for product 1 only and button 2 to open up product 2 details etc.
I could go to individual sheets, but if I had 2000 products, the book would be a little large.

View 2 Replies View RelatedSubroutine To Delete A Row In Another Worksheet Not Work?
Aug 1, 2014I have a short subroutine to delete a row in a second worksheet (SUMMARY EXPENSES) if one is deleted in the main worksheet (AS CODES) as per below:
[Code] .......
In theory the row deletion should only be triggered IF dynamiccounter is smaller than staticcounter, but the fact is anything whatsoever triggers the row deletion. If I type text into a cell a row gets deleted. If I copy a cell, a row gets deleted. It works great at deleting the line, but I suspect it has nothing to do with the counters I set up and the reassigning of the counter value towards the end of the If statement.

Doesn't Work If The Worksheet Hasn't Been Saved Yet
Jun 4, 2007I'm trying to simplify a formula that I'm using in a spreadsheet that's being used mostly in Excel 2000.
2 reasons I'm doing this:
1) It doesn't work if the worksheet hasn't been saved yet.
2) It's ugly
=DATE(YEAR(DATEVALUE(MID(CELL("filename",A1),FIND("]",CELL("filename",A1))+1,3) & " 20" & MID(CELL("filename",A1),FIND("]",CELL("filename",A1))+5,2))),MONTH(DATEVALUE(MID(CELL("filename",A1),FIND("]",CELL("filename",A1))+1,3) & " 20" & MID(CELL("filename",A1),FIND("]",CELL("filename",A1))+5,2)))+1,0)
The formula returns the last day of the month of the name of the sheet. For example, if the sheet is names "Mar 07", it returns 3/31/07. (yeah, when the 2100 issue becomes a big deal, I'm not going to be ready but I have 92 years to think about it)
Even if I can't make it prettier, does anyone have a way to get the sheet name into a formula without VBA Code in a file that hasn't been saved.

UDF Working When Called From Sub, Doesn't Work As Worksheet Function
Mar 28, 2009I have written a user-defined function that searches for a small range within a larger range. The function requires two input parameters: the range you are looking for, and the range you want to look within.
For example, I might look for the string of values in cells A1:D1 in a larger range E1:H20. The function returns the row number in the larger range where the smaller range is found.
My problem is this: The function is working fine when I call it from another sub procedure. However, when I try to run it as a worksheet function, I get a "#VALUE!" error. The function pops up in the "insert function" menu, and it prompts for the two input parameters.
