Is there a way to lock a cell if it does not contain data?

Example

I have a range of cells:
J10 though J25
The cells currently have "Add Name" these cells are unlocked for input.

If they are changed and no longer have "Add Name" I would like to lock any
cell that has changed.

Hi

Something like this (this is an event code and has to be inserted in the
code sheet for the desired sheet):

Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
Set isect = Intersect(Target, Range("J10:J25"))
If Not isect Is Nothing Then
If Target.Value < "Add Name" Then
ActiveSheet.Unprotect Password:="JustMe"
Target.Locked = True
ActiveSheet.Protect Password:="JustMe"
End If
End If
End Sub

Regards,
Per

I sent this yesterday but never showed up in the newsgroup.



put this in the code and No Matter what is in the target it locks the
cell.

I just put in 1 cell "Add Name 1: " and it locked
All other cells in the range stayed unlocked.



If Not isect Is Nothing Then
If Left(Target.Value, 9) < "Add Name" Then

If they are changed and no longer have "Add Name" I would like to lock
any cell that has changed.

I have this in a worksheet Module.
I have been trying to figure this out for over 2 hours and am having trouble
getting it to work.

I actually have 2 ranges on each sheet and 31 sheets named 01 - 31
The first range is T13:T22 and the second range is T46:T55
I thought I would work on the first range first before tackling the second.


Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
Set isect = Intersect(Target, Range("T13:T22"))
If Not isect Is Nothing Then
If Left(Target.Value, 8) < "Add Name" Then
ActiveSheet.Unprotect Password:="Pass"
Target.Locked = True
Else
Target.Locked = False
End If
End If
ActiveSheet.Protect Password:="Pass"
End Sub

Each range has the following
Add Name 1 :
Add Name 2 :
And so on

If the Add Name is no longer there I would like that cell to lock, otherwise
leave it unlocked.

Works for me.

I started with all cells on the sheet unlocked.

As I changed the cell values in the ranges, those cells locked.

For 31 worksheets you would place the code into Thisworkbook module so's it
runs on every sheet..............assuming the ranges are same on each sheet.

Private Sub Workbook_SheetChange(ByVal Sh As Object, _
ByVal Target As Range)
Set isect = Intersect(Target, Range("T13:T22,T46:T55"))
If Not isect Is Nothing Then
If Left(Target.Value, 8) < "Add Name" Then
ActiveSheet.Unprotect Password:="Pass"
Target.Locked = True
'you don't need the Else if you start with all cells(or at least those in
the ranges) unlocked
' Else
' Target.Locked = False
End If

ActiveSheet.Protect Password:="Pass"

Have you enabled macros?

Do regular macros in that workbook operate OK?

Do you have any other event code that fails to run?

Have events been disabled?

Are you sure you have no leading spaces in Add Name xx cells?

Have you enabled macros?

Do regular macros in that workbook operate OK?

Do you have any other event code that fails to run?

Have events been disabled?

Stick this in the Immediate Window and hit Enter

Application.EnableEvents = True

Works for me.

I started with all cells on the sheet unlocked.

As I changed the cell values in the ranges, those cells locked.

For 31 worksheets you would place the code into Thisworkbook module so's
it
runs on every sheet..............assuming the ranges are same on each
sheet.

Private Sub Workbook_SheetChange(ByVal Sh As Object, _
ByVal Target As Range)
Set isect = Intersect(Target, Range("T13:T22,T46:T55"))
If Not isect Is Nothing Then
If Left(Target.Value, 8) < "Add Name" Then
ActiveSheet.Unprotect Password:="Pass"
Target.Locked = True
'you don't need the Else if you start with all cells(or at least those
in
the ranges) unlocked
' Else
' Target.Locked = False
End If
End If
ActiveSheet.Protect Password:="Pass"

I actually have 2 ranges on each sheet and 31 sheets named 01 - 31
The first range is T13:T22 and the second range is T46:T55
I thought I would work on the first range first before tackling the
second.

Each range has the following
Add Name 1 :
Add Name 2 :
And so on

If the Add Name is no longer there I would like that cell to lock,
otherwise
leave it unlocked.

put this in the code and No Matter what is in the target it locks the

I just put in 1 cell "Add Name 1: " and it locked
All other cells in the range stayed unlocked.

Hi

Something like this (this is an event code and has to be inserted
in
the code sheet for the desired sheet):

Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
Set isect = Intersect(Target, Range("J10:J25"))
If Not isect Is Nothing Then
If Target.Value < "Add Name" Then
ActiveSheet.Unprotect Password:="JustMe"
Target.Locked = True
ActiveSheet.Protect Password:="JustMe"
End If
End If
End Sub

Is there a way to lock a cell if it does not contain data?

Example

I have a range of cells:
J10 though J25
The cells currently have "Add Name" these cells are unlocked for
input.

If they are changed and no longer have "Add Name" I would like to
lock
any cell that has changed.

Ranges are unlocked = Yes . and stay unlocked after entering a name
Checked for extra spaces = none.
Re-enable events = yes
The worksheet_Calculate = works fine.

Could it be that the file is too large? It is over 4MB with many macros.

All I can see, if you copied and pasted what you have, is that you need to
rem out the line that should be showing red if you haven't already done
so.

Are you sure you have no leading spaces in Add Name xx cells?

Did you try to re-enable events?

I'm not sure why that particular event won't fire.

If you want to send the workbook to me, feel free.
