Multiple Password
If your workbook contains two or more worksheets then each one can be
protected with their own individual password, so, yes, you can have more than one password in a workbook. Pete On Sep 12, 11:32 pm, revdeacon wrote: Is it possble for one Workbook to have more than one password? |

You can also put a password on the workbook as a whole.

Multiple Passwords - more info
let me give more info...
I am in an environment where I need multiple users to acesss workbooks specifically for them. I wanted to put all the workbooks on our intranet in one folder. Once they accessed the public folder they would only be able to access their workbook via a password. I would want to access the sames workbooks, but I would like to use a spearate password which would be the same for all of them. Is this possible? Two passwords per workbook - one for the specific user and one for me as the master of all of workbooks.

Not possible with Windows/Excel available protection. The only way is to use
VBA to create new entry requirements. -- JNW "revdeacon" wrote: let me give more info... I am in an environment where I need multiple users to acesss workbooks specifically for them.

Multiple Password
Perhaps something such as this...
Public Declare Function GetUserName Lib "advapi32.dll" _ Alias "GetUserNameA" (ByVal lpBuffer As String, nSize As Long) As Long Function ReturnUserName() As String ' returns the NT Domain User Name Dim rString As String * 255, sLen As Long, tString As String tString = "" On Error Resume Next sLen = GetUserName(rString, 255) sLen = InStr(1, rString, Chr(0)) If sLen 0 Then tString = Left(rString, sLen - 1) Else tString = rString End If On Error GoTo 0 ReturnUserName = LCase(Trim(tString)) End Function Sub Filt() Application.ScreenUpdating = False On Error Resume Next Dim Number As Integer Range("J1").Select Selection = "=ReturnUserName()" If Range("J1").Text = oprince Or Range("J1").Text = hsmith = Then '< -- this shows 2 user's login IDs Number = 2 'this can be whatever you desire Else MsgBox ("Unauthorized.") Exit Sub End If ' blah, blah, blah, (I user the filter tool to find all criteria that matched the value 2) End Sub I found the function, I think on this DG, a short time ago. I matched the results of the function with the Sub and got this working later in the afternoon yesterday. Hope that helps, Ryan--- -- RyGuy "revdeacon" wrote: Is it possble for one Workbook to have more than one password? |
