Macro To Open Protected Workbooks Prompting To Enter Password?

Jul 25, 2012

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?

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]

Automatically Enter Password

Apr 3, 2007

I have recently written some programming in a spreadsheet (1) which, on opening, opens up another spreadheet(2), ammends this spreadsheet(2), and then closes it before the user can start using the original one(1). This is done to monitor the usage. The information added into the atomatically opened spreadsheet(2) includes date and time of opening and the users id as well as adding 1 to counter cells. Both .xls files are located on the same server and I dont want people to catch on to the monitoring and if they do I dont want them to then go into this file(2) and remove their information.

If I password protect this file(2) it then promts to enter a password when it runs at the startup of the initial spreadsheet(1) which is no good as it would defeat the purpose if the user knew the password. Is it possible to add a few lines into the code (see below) after it initiates the opening of the usage file?

Private Sub workbook_open()
Application. ScreenUpdating = False
Workbooks.Open Filename:= _
"S:Newman CommonCATEGORY MANAGEMENT - RangesEPoS Usage.xls"
Dim Counter As Integer
Counter = Cells(2, 7)
Counter = Counter + 1
Cells(2, 7) = Counter
Cells(Rows.Count, "BV").End(xlUp).Offset(1, 0) = Now
Cells(Rows.Count, "BW").End(xlUp).Offset(1, 0) = Application.UserName
ActiveWorkbook.Save
ActiveWindow.Close
Application.ScreenUpdating = True
End Sub

Password Protection :: Asking For Password Of An Old Deleted File

Enter Username & Password On Web Page

Oct 25, 2007

I am trying to log on to an FTP site and post a file through Excel VB. I have managed to open a new Explorer window and direct it to the URL, but I don't know what to do next. After navigation to the URL a Pop-Up Window comes asking for UserName and Password and I don't know how to supply it and click submit.
After I have completed that I will need to give the path of the file, click post, and close the window when it is done.

Here is what I got so far:

The commented out stuff is not working. I got it off a similar application that someone else in my company wrote that accomplishes a similar task.

Sub SConnect()
Dim IE As InternetExplorer
Dim IEURL As String
Dim IEDoc As HTMLDocument
Set IE = CreateObject("InternetExplorer.Application")
Set IE = New InternetExplorer
IE.Visible = True
IEURL = "https://something.com" .................

VBA Enter Password To Protected Linked Files

Jul 11, 2013

I currently have a problem when retrieving data from an external document that is password protected. The below routine causes Excel to request the password to the file multiple times. Using the 'SendKeys' function provides a slight workaround although I am very keen to remove this. It also doesn't appear to update links once the routine has run though a couple of the 'For' loops.

I have it set so that the user has to input the first password request, but the 'SendKeys' simply hits enter for the rest of the requests. This doesn't stop the cells from being updated for the first run of the 'For m' routine but can fail on the following runs. Sometimes the second loop works, sometimes it doesn't and the user will have to manually update the links through the 'Edit Links' tool.

I tried turning Application.DisplayAlerts to false after the first password request but that didn't stop it from appearing. If it had, I was going to use the ActiveWorkbook.UpdateLink Type:=xlExcelLinks command to allow the user to update the links at the end.

Code:
Private Sub CommandButton1_Click()
'Application.ScreenUpdating = False
Dim d, m As Integer

[Code]....

DAO Query On Password Protected File: Could Not Decrypt File

Dec 9, 2006

I have an existing application that uses DAO sql queries to populate a form. It has always worked fine. Earlier this week, I password protected the spreadsheet. Now my DAO query fails. I get a run-time error '3161'. Could not decrypt file.

Const stExtens As String = "Excel 8.0;HDR=Yes;PWD=money16;"

Private Sub Execute_Query(SQL)
'Instantiate the DAO objects.
strDb = ThisWorkbook.FullName
Set DAO_ws = DBEngine.Workspaces(0)
' code fails on the line below
Set DAO_db = DAO_ws.OpenDatabase(strDb, False, True, stExtens)
Set DAO_rs = DAO_db.OpenRecordset(SQL, dbOpenForwardOnly)

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")

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:

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.
