Limit Visibility of a worksheet
I have multiple sheets in a workbook.
I want to limit the visibility of 2 of the sheets so that you have to have a password to view them. How do I go about doing this. Thanks in advance, Travis Dahlman |
Limit Visibility of a worksheet
One way, using macros:
Paste these in a VBA module in your workbook. Change the sheet names and password as desired. Sub HideSheets() Sheets("Sheet2").Visible = xlSheetVeryHidden Sheets("Sheet3").Visible = xlSheetVeryHidden End Sub Sub UnhideSheets() Dim ret Const Pwd = "tTyY7&uU" ret = InputBox("Password to unhide sheets", "Unhide Sheets") If ret = Pwd$ Then Sheets("Sheet2").Visible = xlSheetVisible Sheets("Sheet3").Visible = xlSheetVisible End If End Sub These macros could be called from buttons on another sheet. You should also password protect the VBAProject for the workbook. This will prevent most users from seeing the sheets or the pasword, but the security in an Excel workbook is far from unbreakable once the workbook is open.
