Unprotect VBA Project When Shared

Nov 9, 2006

I have an educational workbook which I am not familiar with. I cannot open vb project in vbe. When I try to open it says "project is unviewable". As far as I am concerned it should ask a password. But it doesn't. Can somebody tell me why. I am not asking somebody to crack it for me. I just want to learn why vbe doesn't ask a password. I think the only possibility is the creator of the program want nobody to open the code forever.

Protecting Cells In Shared Workbook

Oct 27, 2006

I have a shared workbook is it at all possible to leave the cells unprotected so a user can enter data but prevent cells from being formated

for instance someone on night shift with nothing better to do has decided that black text on a white background is boring and changes it frequently to a rainbow of colors. and text types
it is making a well laid out and good sheet look like something a child has done
I would pursue this down a discipline line but it has proved impossible to nail down the culprit from the many users

Excel 2003 :: Macro Breaks Because Can't Copy Cell And Then Cannot Select Cells In Workbook

Oct 21, 2013

i have a macro that opens 10 other workbooks and copies cells onto a "master" workbook. Until recently, everything worked fine. Suddendly, while it opens the 9 books and copies as it is expected, but when it opens the 10th wb, the macro breaks at a very simple copy/paste.

The weirdest thing is that after it breaks, I cannot select any cells neither in the opened wb nor in the master wb. This continues even after I press the "reset" button in the vba. So, I am only able to select objects (text boxes etc) in my wb and not any cells.

Also, the "arrow" icon on the design toolbar is not active. And I've tried pressing and de-pressing the F8 key, but I still cannot select any cells.

I have option explicit in the beginning of my macro. And i'm using excel 2003.

Select/Copy/Paste From Workbook To Workbook

Apr 24, 2009

I've been doing various searches for past few hours and can't seem to find out if one its even possible, the closet I've found on here is to copy row to another workbook.

My question is I have one excel book called level1.xls and another excel book level2.xls, now in level1.xls I have a row of fields filled in and in level2.xls I have a blank form which for example I would like to try programme in VBA from the level2.xls file to click a button and open automatically level1.xls then grab field "A2" value from level1.xls and place it in level2.xls field "L4" then continue using level1.xls "B2" to level2.xls in field "C3" and then continue down when I add more values A3, A4 so on in level1.xls to the same field in level2.xls L4.

Unprotect Sheets In New Workbook

May 5, 2014

I have a code that is supposed to go through a folder, open the xls file, replace all of the formulas with values only, then save as a xlsx file to get rid of the macros, however when we get into the next workbook it will not unprotect the sheet. instead it unprotects the origional sheet I sweat this worked last week when i was writing the sections and testing but maybe it didnt. The problem is without unprotecting the sheet i can not paste to it

Workbook 1 opens up, find that the date is expired, then goes through the folder and opens a workbook, is then supposed to unprotect the sheets ( this is where the problem comes in) save all the formulas as values and then as XLS in another folder.

I turned the text red in the offending area, everythign up to this point seems to work fine.

Private Sub Workbook_Open()
Dim printquotes As String
Dim OrigDate As Date
letmesave = True
OrigDate = ActiveSheet.Range("n2").Value

[Code] ......

Unprotect A Workbook With VBA And Re-protect It When Saved

May 13, 2008

I want the excel spreadsheet to "BE Protected" in standard form, and only be "Unprotected" when macros are enabled -- BUT DONT JUMP TO CONCLUSIONS, hear me out, it gets deeper than that

If the user does not enable macros, I want the book to be protected. If they do enable macros, it becomes unprotected.... (On load is good enough, no need to be real-time)..... But, they can save the book, so it would no longer be protected , which is where my question comes in ...

I could use the -unprotect "password"- on load when macros are enabled but this will only work if the spreadsheet was originally protected and is never saved again. This is a problem because this workbook will be given to others and will be saved time and time again.

So, I had a vision :-) .... function 'before save' , protect the sheet using -protect "password"- , allow the sheet to save, and then unprotect back using 'unprotect "password"' so you can continue using - BUT, the problem with this is now I have created an endless loop in theory, because after it unprotects it would want to re-save again because it changed

2007 - Protected Workbook - Can't Unprotect It

Jun 15, 2009

I have a workbook that many moons ago I protected. Now I want the workbook to be an unprotected workbook so many users can view and update if necessary.

Typically I know you are supposed to go to: Review, Changes, Unprotect Workbook. But all that is available is to protect the workbook, but it is already protected. I know this because every time I open the workbook, I am prompted to enter a password.

Is there another way to remove this workbook protection I do not know about?

Shared Workbook Saving

Mar 5, 2010

How do I get a shared workbook to automatically save upon every change by each user. The only way I can get this to work (at this point) is to run a macro that updates every 45 seconds IN EACH WORKBOOK! It's counterintuitive because the workbook is shared (on a network), but each user must start the "time" macro in their "individual" SHARED workbook to allow the automatic saving.

What am I missing? There has to be a more efficient way to do this, right?

Code below
HTML Sub Time()

Call Save
Application.OnTime Now + TimeValue("00:00:45"), "Time"

End Sub

HTML Sub Save()

ActiveWorkbook.Save
End Sub

UserInterFaceOnly In Shared Workbook

Nov 16, 2006

I have a workbook that i am trying to make a shared workbook.

Shared workbooks have all kinds of functionality limitations. The one specifically giving me problems is the ability to protect workbooks.

Once a workbook is shared it's protection cannot be changed.

I protect a workbook prior to sharing and set the UserInterfaceOnly property = true (this allows my code to do whatever it wants but still maintains protection in the user interface).

Once i share and excel makes me save, everything works super and all the code in my auto_open macro works perfectly. But as soon as i close and open the file it seems that the UserInterfaceOnly property i set to true turns off and my code stops working.

Because it's a shared workbook i cannot turn it back on in the auto_open because that functionality is disabled.
