Hi Wolter

I apologise.
I wrote my response without checking out XL2007 first.
As you correctly point out, there is an option to allow the unlocking of
locked cells according to different user passwords.
I have just created such a list, based upon your example, and it works - as
described.

Did you remember to Password protect the Worksheet after you had set up the
ranges and user passwords?
I password protected my sheet, and all worked fine.

If you are still having a problem and wish to mail me a copy of your
workbook direct, I will take a look
To mail direct, send to

Change the at and dots to make valid email address

Hi Roger,

I've done nothing so far in VBA because I believed from the help topic
mentioned before that this could be done without. Reading your reply it's
not possible without VBA. In that case I have missed the point in the help
topic.

Best regards,

Wolter

Hi Wolter

This can only be done using VBA.
What code have you written to achieve this?

Hi All,

I try to create a sheet where diferent users from our domain can edit
data
only in their own cells. See example below:
A B C D
1 Paul Bill Steve
2 Steve editable
3 Bill editable
4 Paul editable

Goal: When domain user Steve opens the sheet he is only capable to edit
cell
D2. If user Bill or Paul open the sheet they can edit only cell C3
(Bill) or
B4 (Paul).

I used online help topic "Allow specific users to edit ranges in a
protected
worksheet" from Excel 2007 but it does not work. All three users can
edit
eachothers cells.

What am I doing wrong here?

Thanks in advance for helping me out here.
