Sub Worksheet Change Range Color Error Due To Protected Sheet
Jul 18, 2006
I have this code that works fine until I password the sheet and the range (b9:d65536) is protected. When I protect the sheet and make a change I get a debug error. What would I need to add/change to handle protected cells on a protected sheet?
VB: AutoLinked keywords will cause extra spaces before keywords. Extra spacing is NOT transferred when copy/pasting, but IS if the keyword uses "quotes" ....
In cell A1, I have the month number (eg, 1, 2, 3,). The month number reflects current month and will automatically change with every month. For example, right now it’s 6, next month it will automatically change to 7. Each two columns in Range A10:X20 represents the data from January to December. I want to use a worksheet event to change the background of the current month two columns in the range to yellow color and the two columns in the range will be visible when I activate this sheet.
I am trying to change the color in Range("A1:bb5000") for each worksheet unless it is protected.
Here is my code
Sub Color_Sheets() Dim ws As Worksheet For Each ws In ActiveWorkbook.Worksheets ws.Activate Range("A1:bb5000").Select If Item.Locked = False Then With Selection.Interior
I have a worksheet where parts of it is locked with a password. I have a data validation cell with a drop down list. I want to set a password to select and change only that cell.
I don't want the list in the cell to be shown without the password
I am getting an error when I protect a worksheet and save it. Upon re-opening the worksheet, I try to use the cells that are being formatted by a macro, but I get the following error...
Run-time error '1004':
Unable to set the NumberFormat property of the Range Class.
If I open the worksheet and it is already protected from when I last closed it, then I get the error. If I unprotect the sheet, then close it and reopen it, then I don't get the error. Does anyone know what I might be missing or doing wrong.
For some reason I thought this would be simple, but not as simple as I thought. I have a UserForm that enters data into a sheet, but before it is entered, the user is prompted for the sheet password (sheet is protected). What I tried to do is use an error handler to exit the sub if the password is incorrect, user hits Cancel, etc. Here is the code I am using:
I am currently working on a project which at various times does 2 different things. These things are to be done on a "PROTECTED" (UserInterfaceOnly:=True ) worksheet.
The first is a Range.Replace command. The other is a Hyperlinks.Add command.
Now when I'm testing ( typically the worksheet is not protected ) everything works like a champ. But as soon as I protect the sheet the following scenario happens.
1. The replace DOES NOT work. 2. The hypelink.add DOES NOT work.
when the sheet is protected it ends up throwing a runtime error ( 1004 ) "Protected Sheet error" the real odd thing about this is that it doesn't throw the error on the command itself. On the hyperlink the error happens about 3 command further along in the flow............
Have wrote the following code to enable 7 sheets to be unprotected, the pivot tables and charts housed within them to be refreshed then the sheets to be protected. However, once the macro has finished I need to be able to still use the filters on the pivots to flick through data. I also need the data table to be protected with the exception of a cell range that can be edited (preferably password protected.
Sub Refresh() ' ' Refresh Macro ' Refresh Pivot Tables/Charts
I am sure that a worksheet change would be the best way to go for this, but I am unsure how to test for this.
I am looking to prevent users from using a select set of colors for highlighting. If the user tries to highlight using one of these invalid colors, I would like to flag a message telling the user that this color is reserved and highlight the selection to the previous color.
The previous color may be a tricky part as I do not know if this can be done.
Is there a way to write a Worksheet_SelectionChange (ByVal Target As Range) event in module after creating a sheet in VBA? I constantly delete a sheet, then repopulate it with a new one that is empty, but I need to add some code that happens if they should change a particular cell. It worked when I ran it on a worksheet without refreshing, but as soon as I cleared and repopulated the sheet, it was gone. Is there a way to preserve this?
I am trying to use the worksheet calculate event to automatically change the color of a cell only when that particular cell changes. In E2 of the worksheet is a formula use to determine rating based on the result of 2 other cells. The rating is classified as follows
Low Moderate High Maximum
I would like to generate a different set of color to the cell and fonts for each of the rating. For example,
"Cyan" to the cell E1 and E2 with Black font if the result is "Low" "Plum" to the cell E1 and E2 with "Black font if the result is "Moderate" "Blue" to the cell E1 and E2 with "White" font if the result is "High" and "Red" to the cell E1 and E2 with "White" font if the result is "Maximum"
Function BG(InRange As Range) Range("InRange").Select With Selection.Interior .ColorIndex = 6 .Pattern = xlSolid End With End Function
That so far but not quite sure why that isnt working. I want to change the fill color with a UDF that all they do is select a Range and it changes those fill colors to whatever the Colorindex may be. I didnt find anything while searching the forums with this already.
I want to change the fill color of all cells on my sheet, based on the value of one specific cell. In my sheet, I am using cell F1 as the trigger for the change. If the word Blue is in the cell, I want the background color of all cells to be Blue. Likewise for Red and Yellow as well. I don't believe conditional formatting can get this done, as all but the one cell (for this) will be empty.
I'm Trying to change the value of a row when a determine condition happens, and I was thinking of doing it after the insert was made, but maybe it's easier before the insert (?) The thing is i've tried both, and i'm doing it wrong because it's not working
Code: With ThisWorkbook.Worksheets("Site Configuration List") .Range("A").EntireRow.Offset(1, 0).Insert ' Tried this .Range("A").EntireRow.Interior.Color = 49407
[Code].....
Obviously not at the same time, but no of those work. The call to the sub where the code above is implemented, is inside a loop, however, with each one of the things I've tried, when it gets to the line the program just stops. No error or anything.
This is my Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
If Intersect(Target, Range("D6:D6000")) Is Nothing Or Intersect(Target, Range("D6:D6000")) = "" Then If Intersect(Target, Range("F6:F6000")) Is Nothing Or Intersect(Target, Range("F6:F3000")) = "" Then If Intersect(Target, Range("I6:I6000")) Is Nothing Or Intersect(Target, Range("I6:I6000")) = "" Then Exit Sub Else
Do Something...... End If End If End If End Sub
when excution comes to this line If Intersect(Target, Range("D6:D6000")) Is Nothing Or Intersect(Target, Range("D6:D6000")) = "" Then
a run time error (91) appears, it tells object variable or with block variable not set.
I have a conditional cell that change color or not if condition...OK so far. Now, how can I change the color of a range of cells when condition is in just one cell. Ex:
I want to change the colour of a cell depending on its value, when compared to another row of data identiified by a value in another cell. To try an clarify:
b3 = 1 b5=4 Because b3 = 1 then compare cell b5 with the row g1 as b3=g1 then depending on its postion set a colour
I am trying to create a formula that will change the cell color in a range of cells in the row. I want the color to change based on the information in a particular cell appearing on a different sheet. What sheet the information is on determines the color the cells change to.
Example: I have 4 sheets I am working with. We will call them A; B; C; and D. I would like the color of cells A5-I5 on sheet D to change to red when the information in cell A5 from Sheet D shows up in any cell in column A on sheet A. If the information from cell A5 sheet D appears in any cell in column A from Sheet B then the color will be yellow, etc.
I have attached an example file.. Basically I want the text in a range to change to red if one cell="Description".
Also, I want a cell's text to turn blue if it's corresponding data in the row says "Click on Title to Follow Link"
The example file explains it a lot better..
Thanks for the help.. Sorry if this may seem like a duplicate post but I was not able to get any of the examples I searched for to work that others have posted.. Also, maybe conditional formatting would be an option here but I could not get it to work as it will only meet the first condition that comes across thats true...
I have a spreadsheet that contains the 5 digit numbers in the rows and the columns respecstively. I'd like a formular or macro to change font color for each cell. If the combined value of the 5 rows are greater or less than the combined range 87030 and 87200, the 5 cells will be changed to Red. If:.........
