I have a workbook containing a few scripts that is used by a few people over the network. I'm wanting it to autosave when run (I have the code for this), but want it to include the user's NTLOGON in the file name. I'm using Excel 97 on Win NT4

I need to find out how to obtain the user logon name when the excel starts up in a more secure way. At the moment I am using the function environ('username') to obtain the name. However, it can be tempered by adding 'Set USERNAME=xxx' to the Environment Variable list. Is there a secure way to find out who logged on such as by interrogating the Active Directories?
View 9 Replies View RelatedI have an expense report, which was originally done in Excel 2003. It still prompts users to open as read only however if they select no, they are not prompted for the password, and it has allowed them to save, so when the next person opens it, they have the previous person's report instead of the clean workbook. I have tried everything to put a password onto it. I know this is really basic stuff, but maybe I am missing a step? I want the end user to be able to make all the changes they want in read only mode and then do a save as, but if the select No when prompted "Open as Read-only?" they should have to put a password in.
View 4 Replies View RelatedI have a command button that opens 5 windows when it is selected. Each window asks us to enter the username, password and logon to in order to sign on...thus, we have to do this a total of 5x manually.
If possible, I'd like for the aforementioned fields to be entered using VBA code, so when I click the command button, all 5 windows open with the login infomration already entered.
For examples, sake, lets say the usernmae is ABC1234, the password is Password and the Logon To field is Alliance. If this is possible, how would I code this?
I have one monthly file which is in the attached format file name "Example".
I need the data from this file as per the format mentioned in the file "must be in this format".
from the "example.xlsx" file i need the login time (only first login) and Logoff time (only last logoff time) which is there in the description column. It must be available in the format mentioned in the file "must be in the format.xlsx".
I have a logon screen and would like to fill a combobox dependent on which user logon.
If User1 logon - options 1,2,4 must be in dropdown list
if User2 logon - options 2,5,6, must be in dropdown list, etc....
I have figured out how to save the workbook using a variable to saveas but I would like to create a new folder to place the new workbook into. I have tried a few things a am not having any luck. I recorded a macro and the code it produced is as follows.
View 6 Replies View RelatedI have a update/Save button on a spreadsheet. So when clicked it updates another sheet and saves the workbook.
how can i have it run the macro when they don't click the button and do
File -> Save.
I have been trying to edit a code which previously saved a copy in a new workbook to a specific folder/path. (Additionally it copies and clears some figures, but this is working as it should.)
However I would like the copy to be saved at the same location as the original workbook, regardless of the path the original workbook is saved.
I.e if I need to move the workbook containing the code to a new folder/location, when using the macro, the new copy should be stored in the same folder/location as the original one.
For now it is only saving the copy into "My Documents"

Sub Macro1()

I'm trying to find a way to save a single sheet of an excel workbook and in the same process delete all vba code and shapes from the new single sheet workbook. I was looking around and found this code which does save only the single sheet to a new one sheet workbook but doesn't delete the vba and shape that I have used to assign macros to in the original.
Code:

I have two workbooks open. I need to "Save As" and close workbook 2 with a file name from a cell in Workbook 1. The macro is running from workbook 1.
I'm guessing a change in the last line. I don't know what Dim means either.
Dim FName As String
Dim FPath As String
FPath = "G:"
FName = Sheets("sheet 1").Range("A1").Text
ThisWorkbook.SaveAs Filename:=FPath & "" & FName
is it possible to work on a workbook lets call it 123
once macro button is pressed it opens workbook abc
then saves it as what ever is in cell a1 to a directory?
the following scenario.

I have a spreadsheet that data gets exported to from a software program. There is information such as customer name, part number, inquiry number, etc that I'd like to use to develop a log of all my estimates I create for parts. I'd like excel to take the cells I select and insert them into certain cells in the other workbook and automatically save that workbook. This will create a log of all my estimates where I can then link the full estimate to the log. The information will have to go in the next available row. Is there any way I can accomplish this without having to open the other workbook and save the work book each time?
View 1 Replies View RelatedNeed VBA code to save column J of open workbook called LmbcAcctsPayable.xls, Sheet1, to same workbook & sheet called LmbcAcctsPayable.xls, Sheet1, when save is not selected.
Reason: The workbook is usually not saved because it is more of a templet with names in column A. Column J is updated with a date when a row is used so I need the column J to copy automatically to the blank templet when exiting without saving (using ThisWorkbook.Save = True in Auto_Close). That way, rows not being used for a long period of time can be periodically eleminated.

I snagged this code out from another project I wrote, and it works fine in that one, but doesn't in the new project.
What I want, is when the person presses the exit button, it will save whatever was done, its running as a form printer and database. The code below is the code for my exit button.

View 5 Replies View RelatedI have a workbook that is used to track overtime hours worked through the year. I've received some help from users on this forum, and others, to create the necessary macros and formulas to allow a supervisor to make use of the form; however, the workbook is also used to track those that wish to volunteer to work overtime each weekend. The sheet has a list of names for the employees on each shift, then a column to allow a "Y" to be placed under the date - designating them as a volunteer for any overtime available. I've found this spreadsheet (attached - from this site) that will allow individual users to access the workbook and have unique passwords for each. I don't completely understand how it works, but I feel it may be a start to getting what I want.
Essentially, once the user selects their name and inputs their password, I'd like the workbook to be opened and then allow them to only manipulate the row associated with their name. That row will change from week to week, so specific numbers will not be able to be used, but their name will be the same as the name used in the logon.
I feel like I'm asking for a lot here, so just some initial guidance on whether this type of thing is possible would be an acceptable answer.

am trying to create a workbook template which collects data from users with user forms and some macros. Users assign a project name when workbook opens and then they are able to save as the workbook with name of project name. But i don't want them to save on my template mistakenly. How do i prevent this? I tried workbook_before close sub but i can manage that it recommends to save workbook with project name and if you don't want, it still asks you if you want to save workbook before close

View 2 Replies View RelatedI have made some changes to a workbook and now every time I want to close it I'm asked if I want to save the changes, even when I have made no changes. If I click 'Yes' to save changes the problem still occurs the next time it's opened & closed.
I have checked external connections and there are none. I have done a 'find' to check that there are no formulas looking at another sheet, which I cannot find.
This document has to have a live calculation function - I have read some suggestions around turning off auto calculations but this isn't a possibility and I'm not sure that this is where the problem lies.
The previous version does not have this problem, so it is something I have done between v2.2 and v2.3. I have attached both for reference. Note that they were originally xltm's not xlsx's - I could not upload macro-enabled templates, but the same problem occurs in v2.3 in this format.
I need to save my workbook to another drive every Friday for archive purposes. My workbook contains time sheets for each employee. Currently I use a command button to copy and save the workbook to the correct place and it works perfect. However, the formulas are copying with it and when I open the saved workbook in the future the dates have changed in the Mon-Fri cells. The reason for this is because I have a formula in the week starting cell that changes the date automatically every Sunday. Then, the dates in the Mon-Fri cells change with it.
What code can I insert, and where, to keep the formulas from copying over with the workbook? The code I am using is below:

I have a userform where data is entered and upon pressing submit it saves the workbook. this has been working fine, but all of a sudden today it has stopped saving.
I have tried using ThisWorkbook.Save and Activeworkbook.save and both appear to save (i see the "saving" dialogue box), the data is submitted into the spreadsheet behind the userform. But as soon as i close and re-open it, the data isnt there.
I assumed it may be some sort of permissions issue where the file is located. But if i manually enter the data into the spreadsheet and press save, it works and retains the data! So it appears to be something wrong with my userform, which has magically happened over night.
