Allow macro to work for a group of cells but not the other cells
 
Hello,

I am working on a workbook where a group of cells must change with a
macro button which will be triggered by a user. Insert value and
color.
The value is used in a formel in another cell.
If value input is wrong the user can reset the cell with a macro
button.

Problem:
1. First Macro works throughout the worksheet and I only want it to be
able to work in 5 groups of cells
2. Second Macro (reset macro)
The reset macro can delete the formel if this cell is chosen so I need
it to function only in the same groups as the first macro.


The code for insert av value and color

Sub mrkArbeidstid()
'
' mrkArbeidstid Makro
' Makro registrert 22.01.2008 TPS og EG
' Registrerer arbeidstid for maskin og dekksbesetningen

ActiveSheet.Protect DrawingObjects:=False, Contents:=False,
Scenarios:=False

With Selection.Interior
.ColorIndex = 35
.Pattern = xlSolid
End With

Selection.Interior.ColorIndex = 35
Selection.Font.ColorIndex = 35
Selection.FormulaR1C1 = "a"

ActiveSheet.Protect DrawingObjects:=True, Contents:=True,
Scenarios:=True

The code for reset

Sub mrkTilbakestill()
'
' mrkTilbakestill Makro
' Makro registrert 22.01.2008 TPS og EG
' Registrerer arbeidstid for maskin og dekksbesetningen

ActiveSheet.Protect DrawingObjects:=False, Contents:=False,
Scenarios:=False

With Selection.Interior

Selection.ClearContents
Selection.Interior.ColorIndex = xlNone

End With

ActiveSheet.Protect DrawingObjects:=True, Contents:=True,
Scenarios:=True


I am just about learning this so if there's someone who has an answer
for me I would be very gratefull

Hi Eric,

Try assigning the two following procedures to buttons:
'===========
Public Sub mrkArbeidstid()
'
' mrkTilbakestill Makro
' Makro registrert 22.01.2008 TPS og EG
' Registrerer arbeidstid for maskin og dekksbesetningen
Dim Rng As Range
Dim Rng2 As Range
Dim rArea As Range

Set Rng = ActiveSheet.Range("A1:D20") '<<=== CHANGE

On Error Resume Next
Set Rng2 = Intersect(Selection, Rng)
On Error GoTo 0

If Rng2 Is Nothing Then
Exit Sub
End If

ActiveSheet.Unprotect
For Each rArea In Rng2.Areas
With rArea
.Font.ColorIndex = 35
.Formula = "a"
With .Interior
.ColorIndex = 35
.Pattern = xlSolid
End With
End With
Next rArea

ActiveSheet.Protect _
DrawingObjects:=True, _
Contents:=True, _
Scenarios:=True
End Sub

'-------------
Public Sub mrkTilbakestill()
'
' mrkTilbakestill Makro
' Makro registrert 22.01.2008 TPS og EG
' Registrerer arbeidstid for maskin og dekksbesetningen

If Rng2 Is Nothing Then
Exit Sub
End If

ActiveSheet.Unprotect

End With
Next rArea

Thank you for quick and usefull help.
It works fantastic.

There is only one thing that is missing now and that is to protect the
sheet with a password.
I thought that that would be easy since I saw several examples in this
discusion group.
But as always, nothing is as easy as it looks.
I tried the following but get an error message for the
ActiveSheet.Protect part.
Can you help me out with this?

ActiveSheet.Unprotect Password:="test"
For Each rArea In Rng2.Areas
With rArea
.Font.ColorIndex = 35
.Formula = "a"
With .Interior
.ColorIndex = 35
.Pattern = xlSolid
End With
End With
Next rArea


ActiveSheet.Protect _
DrawingObjects:=True, _
Contents:=True, _
Scenarios:=True
Password:="test"

Thanks

The problem now is to prtect it with a password.

Hi Eric,

At the top of a standard module, brfore
any other code try the following minor
