I want to hide all toolbars and disable the red X upon opening of the spreadsheet, and to restore the main toolbars upon closing. That worked perfectly. (when I used the black code -see below)
I added in the red code as i wanted to disable the red X as well to ensure that users will always close the EXCEL worksheet via a Macro button.
The Macro will save the spreadsheet and close the worksheet and the Private sub should restore the toolbars.
I have a workbook that has a macro that needs to run before it is closed. I have a button on my sheet that runs that macro and then closes the sheet. Is there a way that I can disable the "X" at the top right hand of the workbook and force the user to close the workbook via my button?

I want to disable the X button on the top right hand corner in excel, but still allow the user with the option of closing the workbook via File and then scrolling down to EXIT. (Not close). I have disabled most of the functions in the Menu bar Close being one of them.
So only Exit is now enabled. When I click on the X it give me the following message as shown below advising me to go to the File menu to Exit, this bit I am happy with. However this is were my problem begins, when I go to File and Exit I get the same message as below and can not exit the application.
Private Sub Workbook_BeforeClose(Cancel As Boolean)
Cancel = True
MsgBox "Please select EXIT from the File Menu.", vbCritical, "Cannot Close"
End Sub

View 9 Replies View RelatedI have a macro associated to clicking a form button.
If possible, if a certian cell value is equal to 0, I want to diable this button. I do not wish for theuser to be able to run the macro associated with that button click.
If found something similar, but in my case, I cannot find the equivalent to CommandButton1, if that's even what I'm using.
If Worksheets("SHEET").Range("A1").Value = "" Then
CommandButton1.Enabled = False
The code below is supposed to disable the appropriate command buttons when it's associated cell values are 0.
Private Sub Worksheet_Activate()
If Range("C17").Value = 0 Then
ActiveSheet.CommandButton7.Enabled = False
ActiveSheet.CommandButton4.Enabled = False
Else
ActiveSheet.CommandButton7.Enabled = True
ActiveSheet.CommandButton4.Enabled = True
End If
Not working ..... no buttons are disabled even with their cells are zero. Did I forget something?

View 9 Replies View RelatedI would like some help on disabling the Esc key in a macro and to disable the Cancel button and X on message and input boxes.
My macro is to insert rows in a protected worksheet and another to run a spellcheck, if my users hit any of the above keys during the macro my worksheet is left unprotected and formulas could be deleted in error. I have pasted a copy of my code below,
Sub InsertRowAboveCopyFormulas()
ActiveSheet.Unprotect ("password")
Dim Rng, n As Long, k As Long
Application.ScreenUpdating = False
Rng = InputBox("Enter number of rows required.")
If Rng = "" Then Exit Sub
On Error Resume Next
ActiveCell.EntireRow.Select
Selection.Resize(rowsize:=Rng).Rows(1).EntireRow. _
Resize(rowsize:=Rng).Insert Shift:=xlUp
Selection.Offset(Rng).AutoFill Selection.Resize( _
rowsize:=Rng + 1), xlFill
Selection.Resize(Rng).EntireRow. _
SpecialCells(xlConstants).ClearContents
ActiveSheet.Protect ("password")
End Sub
I'm sure there is a way to disable the 'X' (quit) button in the top right-hand corner of the EXcel application (not the 'X' for individual workbooks), or the hook the quit event so that I can run code that shut down the application cleanly? I'm sure a Windows API call is involved but do not know enough about that side of programming to know for sure.

I get Error 424, Object Required. I've tried recording a macro of what I wish to do, and it gives me ActiveSheet.Shapes("btnRefresh").Select, but this doesn't give me the option to enabled/disable or change the caption of the button.
I have two option buttons on a user form, one for a temperature of <250 & one for a temperature >250. I want the option button >250 to be greyed out or have it so that you cannot choose it & option button <250 selected if a certain criteria in a list box is selected. The list box is called Valve_Model & the criteria i want it to work on is if the valve model HPBV Soft is selected & HPBV Soft AC.

View 3 Replies View RelatedI have a userform with a textbox and a command button. I have used data validations on the textbox. Clicking the command button saves the data in the worksheet. It works well if the user hits tab, enter or down arrow key after entering the data. The problem is, the textbox validations fail to get executed if the focus stays on the textbox and command button is pressed. I want the command button to be disabled until the user has moved the focus away from the textbox -there by executing the validations!

I am making a timesheet which has a UserForm with textbox and 3 command buttons namely Search, IN and OUT. The program works like this, user type his id no., then clicks on search, once id match command buttons for IN and OUT are enabled. User clicks on IN button then current time which tags as NOW() will be pasted on the worksheet. Same goes with the OUT button. I was able to make them work that way. The problem here now is, the data being entered are vulnerable for data-re entry. What I mean is, if a certain user has already a recorded IN time, if he clicks on the IN time again, the data will be overwritten. Is there a way that once the user has already a recorded IN time, the IN button will be disabled for that user since he has already a recorded IN data?

View 5 Replies View RelatedI have made an excel workbook detailing team performance that all of my team have access to and that requires updating once a day. The first person to access the workbook each day presses a Command Button that updates the workbook and inserts a time/date stamp. However, other members of the team go into the workbook and update it again the same day which then affects the data being reported.
I know i should probably just sack them for not being able to read the time and date but HR would not like that so is there a way to disable CommandButton1 (ActiveX) so that once it is pressed it is disables until the next day?
