Sheet Protection and VBA Code
Does anyone know how to get Excel to allow VBA code to write to a password protected worksheet? I am using a work-around solution at the moment whereby the VBA unprotects the relevant worksheet, writes data to it, then re-protects it. There must be a better way than this though. Obviously I don't want my users to delete the formulas etc in the worksheet but I want my code to be able to write data to the worksheet without having to unprotect/re-protect it all the time!

One of the arguments of the Worksheet Protect method is UserInterfaceOnly.
You should protect the sheet in code, setting that to true and see if it helps. It is not a setting that saves with the workbook so it has to be reset after each open. -- Jim "TheRobsterUK" wrote in message news:TheRobsterUK.1pp4ac_1117206302.1348@excelforu m-nospam.com... | | Does anyone know how to get Excel to allow VBA code to write to a | password protected worksheet? | | I am using a work-around solution at the moment whereby the VBA | unprotects the relevant worksheet, writes data to it, then re-protects | it. | | There must be a better way than this though.
