I have made a questionnaire in excel which has drowdown lists, hidden rows
that pop up if you check certain cells, font and background change colors according to the option button selection etc. This form is to be emailed to our clients, and when i email it to others the security settings disable the macros automatically on some computers. I have to find a way around this because we can't tell each of our clients to change their settings. I am thinking maybe protection the wooksheet may help? I tried to protect part of the worksheet to see if I can still run the macros, but it asks me for a password every time I click on the option button (see code below). I don't want that since I will ultimately be hiding the password and the code from the client. I just want them to be able to run the macros and be able to type in the unlocked cells. I made this form looking at onther one which is just like mine. It is protected and emailing it doesnt cause the macro security issue. I am just not sure how they did it since I don't have the password to unprotect their sheet. Please advise... Thanks Private Sub OptionButton1_Change() Worksheets("Job Info Sheet").Unprotect 'Password:="xyz" If OptionButton1.Value = True Then Range("A29:D34").Font.ColorIndex = 0 Range("E29:K34").Interior.ColorIndex = 0 Else Range("A33:D33").Font.ColorIndex = 36 Range("E33:K33").Interior.ColorIndex = 36 End If Worksheets("Job Info Sheet").Protect 'Password:="xyz" End Sub |
