Default allow change font while password pretected.
Hi all
I have this sub below that I use, It works very well apart from one small
thing. I would like to have a password in it. Also I need to be able to
change the font colour and make bold etc. I have tryed adding it to the sub
but it wont work, as the sub is now it works but users can go to the
protection in tools and unprotect. If I add a password to the sheet I cant
use the macro. Please help

Regards
Chris

First, you didn't say what you wanted to bold/change font color.

I'd record a macro to get the cells correct and the font color, too.

But you can use:
ActiveSheet.Unprotect password:="YourPasswordHere"
....your code
ActiveSheet.Protect _
password:="YourPasswordHere", _
DrawingObjects:=True, _

Thanks for that Dave.
I had been trying to change the colours of cell inputs and make bold. We
make the new items Red Bold and black bold for anything one day old then
black standard from then on. So this worked perfectly.
I had tryed to put it in myself the same but I was entering the
Activesheet.Protect_ password on the same line.

Regards
Chris

Chris,

I'm not sure I understand but you can use a password with VB

ActiveSheet.Unprotect password:="MyPass"

and likewise

ActiveSheet.protect password:="MyPass"

Mike

When competing hypotheses are otherwise equal, adopt the hypothesis that
introduces the fewest assumptions while still sufficiently answering the
question.
