I have a sheet which i made ages ago and cant remember my pw. I can goto the alt, F11 select the macro and run it which i have set from all sheets to hide, and i can change the wording on the sheets but i cant open the code.
Does this mean i will have to forget about it unless i remember the pw?
How to retrieve the password of my excel file?

A little unrelated to excel as such but helpful to many of us I think. How to set a password to open/ view any folder or directory?
View 2 Replies View RelatedI 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]
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.
I know of the password protect feature to open a excel file or workbook, but does anyone know if this can be done for opening a worksheet.
I want to be able to view a worksheet after a password is entered, so therefore different worksheets have different passwords.
I have a certain .xls file which is password protected.
Now i have forgot the password for opening the file. Is there any other way of opening the file without password or using a Macro.
i have one page with 6 different links, each link will open one worksheet , i want to set password to each link to open there worksheet , i can update my file if it's required .
View 14 Replies View RelatedI have the following line of code to open a file and enter the password to allow modifications.
When I run the code the file opens but then the password isn't entered.
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?

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?
I have not asked for this Dialog Box, but it appears when I open the workbook.

How can I remove open password from an excel file having version 2003 without any software.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI 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.

I've got a spreadsheet that has password protection before you can "modify" it. All of a sudden today, when I open the spreadsheet and enter the correct password, it still opens but only as Read Only.

upon opening my spreadsheet which will only open if the correct answer/ password is typed.
I’d need to store the questions, passwords/ answers somewhere for VB to look up I guess??
Capital of England – London
Capital of France – Paris

And then I need coding which will open one of the random questions, which will only grant access to the spreadsheet if the correct answer is typed.
I am having an issue with a macro to open password protected workbooks. The macro works just fine in opening the files and whatnot, but for some reason it prompts me to enter the password again once the file has been opened. Funny thing is I can either hit OK or hit Cancel and it goes to the next file. All files open correctly, I was just curious as to why this is happening and how to correct it?

View 2 Replies View RelatedI have an add-in which I want to share with others, but I want to protect the code from modification.
I know how to apply a password to a VBA project (Tools -> Project Properties -> Protection) but the problem is this: when a colleague installs the add-in, the subroutines within the add-in are not available in the Macros list to be added to the ribbon (in the Customize Ribbon window). The subroutines only appear when I remove the password.

I have an excel spread sheet with say 20 or so sheets. Sheet 20 known as "Rates" is hidden. What I would like to do is when the user presses a command button say on sheet 1 he is asked for a password which will unhide the Rates sheet . If he gets it wrong a message pops up say incorrect please try again or have an exit button to cancel.
