How to Unprotect Project Protection through Macro
 

Hi All,
I've big problem.
I've to modify macro code using VBE, and it's done succesfully.
But it won't work if I protect the macro with a password. But I have to
do that to prevent user change the code.
Could I unprotect the Project's Protection through the Macro?

Please help me, I really need this

Thanks,

Resant

How to Unprotect Project Protection through Macro
 

Project protection (set within the VBE environment) is not full proof, but
should not prevent macros running! Are you protecting the sheets /
workbook? As in this case macros may not work if they need access to the
sheets within the workbook.

You cannot unprotect projects using VBA, but you can unprotect sheets /
workbooks at the start of your code and then protect them again at the end.
Is this your problem?

Hi resant

There's no VB object for this. It is possible, but vulnerable, to use
SendKeys and simulate the manual action. See

How to Unprotect Project Protection through Macro
 

The SendKeys to UnProtect Macro is work, but cannot Protect the Macro

When Protect Macro executing, VB Project Properties window show
flashly.
But the macro unable to protect?

What's wrong?

How to Unprotect Project Protection through Macro
 

Please help me,

Why I cannot protect the Macro again?
Actually even when we protect the Macro manually by click Tools, etc.
It won't abel to protect the Macro, except restart excel first, rite?

Below is the code that I took from forum :

Sub ProtectVBProject(WB As Workbook, ByVal strPassword As String)
Dim vbProj As Object

Set vbProj = WB.VBProject

'can't do it if already locked!
If vbProj.Protection = 1 Then Exit Sub

Set Application.VBE.ActiveVBProject = vbProj

' now use lovely SendKeys to set the project strPassword
SendKeys "+{TAB}{RIGHT}%V{+}{TAB}" & strPassword & "{TAB}" &
strPassword & "~"

'Application.VBE.CommandBars(1).FindControl(ID:=25 78,
recursive:=True).Execute

'WB.Save

End Sub


Thanks again

How to Unprotect Project Protection through Macro
 

The workbook has to be closed and reopened to make the project unviewable.

And you don't have to reprotect the project. If you don't remove the protection
(different than just unlocking the project), then the project will be protected
when you reopen it next time.

How to Unprotect Project Protection through Macro
 

If you unlock the project, make your changes, save the workbook, close the
workbook, and then reopen that workbook, you'll see that the project is still
protected.

Unlocking the project didn't remove the password for next time.

This is different than the way worksheet protection works. If you unprotect a
worksheet, it'll stay unprotected unless you protect it again.
