protect more than one sheet at a time
How can I protect more than one sheet at a time. If I select all sheets in a
workbook, the dropdown menu will not allow me to protect all sheets at once. Instead I have to manually protect each sheet which can be very timecomsumming if I have over 50 sheets in a workbook. |
protect more than one sheet at a time
The only way to do it is with code something like this...
Sub ProtectAll() dim wks as worksheet on error resume next for each wks in worksheets wks.Protect Password:="Tada" next wks end sub Sub UnprotectAll() dim wks as worksheet on error resume next for each wks in worksheets wks.UnProtect Password:="Tada" next wks end sub -- HTH...
