VB- Open File With KNOWN Password

Oct 22, 2009

I have a macro that opens Spreadsheet_A, copies the contents to Spreadsheet_Master, closes Spreadsheet_A, then repeats the process for Spreadsheet_B then ss_C then ss_D etc etc etc.....

Each spreadsheet is password protected, and the password is the same for all spreadsheet to stop casual browsing only. I have set the password.

When I run the macro, I have to type the password in each instance, ie 20 or more times for 2 or more files.

Anyone know the code to insert so the spreadsheet opens without my typing the password.

[It's Excel 2007, but I presume the same code as Excel 2003]

Password Box For Spreadsheet Open

Apr 19, 2006

I am just wondering if it is possible to insert a module or a code such that it is user specific.

In detail, there are two types of users: Administrator and User.

If it were administrator, it should ask for a password. If user, it should give the read-only or a protected form of the spreadsheet.

I just need the workbook to pop-up with a msgbox of administrator/user with a radio button or a select button. If administrator, it should ask for a password. Also, disabling the macros should not open the spreadsheet as making this would lead to nothing.

How To Open Another Workbook That Is Password Protected

Nov 7, 2011

Code:
Sub Open_Test_File()
Dim wb As Workbook
Set wb = Application.Workbooks.Open("DesktopTest File.xls")
End Sub

This very simple little code opens a new workbook.

But if I add a password to the file that I'm going to open the password box appears.

What do I need to add to this code to automatically input this password?

I have tried putting this at the end:

Code:
Password:="123"
but this does not work?

Macro To Open Workbook With Password

Jul 25, 2007

I have a workbook with the following

Sub Workbook_Open()
Sheets("Occ-Rent-Concess Worksheet").Select
ActiveSheet.Unprotect Password:="pass"
ActiveSheet.Select
Cells.Locked = True
ActiveSheet.Protect Password:="pass"
pass:
UserName = InputBox("Enter Log On Name to Continue..............................................

This code opens a msgbox that asks for a password and then unlocks certain cells based on what the password is. I have 140 of these workbooks. I need to be able to open them all and change one cell in each file, save it and close. I've gotten the macro written to open, change and save the files, but I am still having to type the 'password' 140 times. Is there a way to bypass it?

Require Password To Open If Username Does Not Match A List

Aug 8, 2014

I have a spreadsheet (don't we all) that is currently password protected - you double click the file and need to input a password before it will open.

I have some code that will protect a workbook from changes and only unlock for specific usernames, and i wonder if there is some code that will do the following:

-User opens spreadsheet
-VBA looks at the username trying to open the sheet, for this example the username is Paul.Smith
-Paul.Smith is not one of the people who should have regular access to this sheet - so the VBA requests a password from him prior to opening the sheet.

My username opens the same sheet (galvin.paddy), VBA see's that my name is one of the 'Authorised Users', removes the password and opens the sheet for me ready for use.

Open Folder In Explorer

Jul 18, 2008

I was wondering if it is possible to use a macro open a folder in Windows Explorer. Previously someone on this forum taught me how to open an Excel file from a macro, but in this case there will be a new file every week. As the files will all be stored in the same folder, I thought it would be easier to open the folder in the normal Explorer view and select the file manually than to change the macro every week.

I am using Windows XP and Excel 2003. My programmes are run from the C drive, but my documents are stored on the E drive. What I am looking for really is a line that says: open in Explorer E:data
ewprocessed.

Open All Files From A Folder

Aug 4, 2009

I have created a Spreadsheet that does all of the calculations, analysis, graphs, etc. that i need; however every time I wish to use this spreadsheet I need to first open up a spreadsheet with data, copy it and then paste it into the original spreadsheet. While this is not horrible, it is quite tedious to do several thousand times.

Thus, I was wondering if it were possible to create a Macro that would open up all files in a specific folder, then select each one and paste the relevant data into my original spreadsheet. I know this possible for specific files; for example, I have created a Macro that will select files data.xls, dats1.xls, data2.xls, and paste these into the spreadsheet, but I was wondering if there was a way to generalize this so that it will simply open every file regardless of the name or how many files there are in the specific folder.

VBA To Open All Workbooks In Folder?

Oct 17, 2013

I have a macro that opens all workbooks in a folder and searches for a few terms returning the appropriate rows, my problem is that someone has decided to protect some of the sheets so when the files are opened you get the password box popup. I have added the (filename, readonly) segment however this has not solved the issue, the macro displays an error stating a workbook is open.

Is there any way to resolve this without unprotecting the sheets?

Open Sub Folder From Worksheet

Jun 7, 2009

I have an excel 2007 worksheet named "Invoice" that I would like to be able to navigate with using a command button that will open a separate File Folder or sub folder called "Report" that stores all my reports in for viewing.

My excel worksheet named "Invoice" and File Folder or sub folder named "Report" are located in the same sub folder that is named “Marketing Report”.

This report will be used on different computers and I’m sure different location / Path on their computer.

Workbooks.Open Filename:=ThisWorkbook.Path & "Report"

and

Private Sub CommandButton3_Click()
Dim fn As String
ChDir ThisWorkbook.Path
Report = Application.GetOpenFileName()
Workbooks.Open(Report)
End Sub

I also tried to record a macro but would not record going to file folder.
