Private Sub Worksheet_SelectionChange(ByVal Target As Range)
Dim rg As Range
Set rg = Intersect(Target, Range("A1:J10"))
If Not rg Is Nothing And Range("V7") = "YES" Then
[RowNo] = ActiveCell.Row
[ColNo] = ActiveCell.Column
End If
End Sub
…
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
If Not Intersect(Target, Range("V7")) Is Nothing Then
If Target = "NO" Then [AK1:AL1] = 0
End If
End Sub
The above SelectionChange does not work when the sheet is in protect mode. Is there any way to correct this. In protect mode it hangs up on the line that says [RowNo] = ActiveCell.Row. This works correctly when sheet is unprotected.
Like this:
'...
Me.Unprotect 'in a sheet module Me=the sheet
[RowNo] = ActiveCell.Row
[ColNo] = ActiveCell.Column
Me.Protect
'...

Please help me with my macro below it doesn't work correctly when I changed value in activecell.
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
Application.EnableEvents = False
Dim KeyCells As Range
kolumna = ActiveCell.Column
wiersz = ActiveCell.Row
komorka = Cells(wiersz, kolumna).Address
Set KeyCells = Range(komorka)
If Not Application.Intersect(KeyCells, Range(Target.Address)) Is Nothing Then
Target.Offset(0, 1) = Target * 12
End If
Application.EnableEvents = True
End Sub
but when I such code as below it works but it works when I change value in cell: $D$3
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
Application.EnableEvents = False
Dim KeyCells As Range
Set KeyCells = Range("$D$3")
If Not Application.Intersect(KeyCells, Range(Target.Address)) Is Nothing Then
Target.Offset(0, 1) = Target * 12
End If
Application.EnableEvents = True
End Sub
so the problem with my code is here:
komorka = Cells(wiersz, kolumna).Address
Thanks a lot for your help
Move After Return
Application.MoveAfterReturn
It will not work if MoveAfterReturn is set to True, because when you change a value the cursor moves to the next cell which becomes the ActiveCell so they never intersect (Correction: it will work anyway if you're in column A and use the Left arrow to confirm the entry or in A1 use the Up arrow, etc.).
It could work if you set MoveAfterReturn to False, so I wrote the procedure to toggle it. Add a Button or a CommandButton and use it to enable or disable it when necessary.
Note that you have to confirm the cell entry with Enter. The arrows will not do.
Sheet Module e.g. Sheet1
Option Explicit
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
If Not Application.MoveAfterReturn Then
If Not Application.Intersect(ActiveCell, Target) Is Nothing Then
Dim cValue As Variant: cValue = Target.Value
If IsNumeric(cValue) Then
Target.Offset(0, 1).Value = CDbl(cValue) * 12
End If
End If
End If
End Sub
Standard Module e.g. Module1
Option Explicit
Sub toggleMAR()
With Application
If .MoveAfterReturn Then
.MoveAfterReturn = False
Else
.MoveAfterReturn = True
End If
End With
End Sub
I need a simple code which will copy contents of adjacent left cell to double clicked cell. This is to help me in making entries as in attached image.
If I click c2 it should copy 3 from b2 and paste it in c2, and it should do it for c2: c100
Private Sub Worksheet_BeforeDoubleClick(ByVal Target As Range, Cancel As Boolean)
Dim wb As Workbook: Set wb = ThisWorkbook
Dim ws1 As Worksheet: Set ws1 = wb.Worksheets("sheet1")
With ws1
If Not Intersect(Target, Range("b2:b100")) Is Nothing Then
Cancel = True
If Application.CountIf(Sheets(ws1).Range("b2:b100"), Target.Value) = 0 Then
Cells(Target.Row, 3).Value = Target.Value
End If
End If
End With
End Sub
You can do something like this - note in the worksheet code module, you can use Me to refer to the worksheet.
Technically you don't need to qualify the Range(), since in a worksheet module it defaults to that sheet, but it's good practice to always qualify where you can.
Private Sub Worksheet_BeforeDoubleClick(ByVal Target As Range, Cancel As Boolean)
If Not Intersect(Target, Me.Range("C2:C100")) Is Nothing Then
Cancel = True
with Target.Offset(0, -1)
If Len(.Value) > 0 Then Target.Value = .Value
End With
End If
End Sub
This is a simple code
Private Sub Worksheet_BeforeDoubleClick(ByVal Target As Range, Cancel As Boolean)
If Target.Cells.CountLarge > 1 Then Exit Sub
If Not Intersect(Target, Range("C2:C100")) Is Nothing Then
Cancel = True
Target.Value = Target.Offset(, -1).Value
End If
End Sub
So I know that one can format cells to be locked and then protect a worksheet to prevent that data being overwritten. But I'm looking to be able to dynamically lock cells within a sheet. From doing some Googling I've tried adapting the below block of code for my needs. The intent is that if column A has a value the rest of the row will be locked so no one can overwrite the rest of the row.
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
If Intersect(ActiveSheet.Cells(18, 1), Target) Is Not Nothing Then
If ActiveSheet.Cells(18, 1).Text = "X" Then
ActiveSheet.Range(Cells(18, 2), Cells(18, 20)).Locked = True
Else
ActiveSheet.Range(Cells(18, 2), Cells(18, 20)).Locked = False
End If
End If
End Sub
Any help would be much appreciated, as well as tips for succinctly applying this to every row in the sheet.
UPDATE:
Per BigBen's answer I've revised to the following:
Private Sub Workbook_Open()
Sheets(“Sheet8”).Protect Password:="Secret", UserInterFaceOnly:=True
End Sub
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
Dim rng As Range
Set rng = Intersect(Me.Columns(1), Target)
If rng Is Nothing Then Exit Sub
Dim cell As Range
For Each cell In rng
cell.EntireRow.Locked = (cell.Value = "X")
Next
End Sub
But that still doesn't seem to be working...
You need to change the Intersect to test if Target intersects column A, and not a particular cell:
Note also the Not syntax: If Not Intersect... Is Nothing, instead of If Intersect... Is Not Nothing.
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
If Not Intersect(Me.Columns(1), Target) Is Nothing Then
Dim rng as Range
For Each rng in Intersect(Me.Columns(1), Target)
If rng.Value = "X" Then
rng.EntireRow.Locked = True
Else
rng.EntireRow.Locked = False
End If
Next
End If
End Sub
Or perhaps a bit more succinctly:
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
Dim rng As Range
Set rng = Intersect(Me.Columns(1), Target)
If rng Is Nothing Then Exit Sub
Dim cell As Range
For Each cell In rng
cell.EntireRow.Locked = (cell.Value = "X")
Next
End Sub
I have an Excel spreadsheet where I want to protect cells in column I if the respective cell of column H <> "yes".
I found a code but it will protect all the cells of column I.
Option explicit
Sub unprotected
Me.unprotect password:= "abc"
End sub
Sub protect
Me.protect userinterfaceonly:= true ,password:= "abc"
End sub
Private Sub Worksheet_change(ByVal Target As Range)
Dim Crow as Long
Call Unprotected
xrow = Target.Row
If not (intersect(Target, range("H3:H1000")) is nothing then
Cells(xrow, "I").locked = (Ucase(trim(cells(xrow, "H").value))<>"yes")
End if
Call protect
End sub
Try this:
Option Explicit
Const PW As String = "abc" '<< use a constant for fixed/shared values
Private Sub Worksheet_change(ByVal Target As Range)
Dim rng As Range, c As Range
'find changed cells in range of interest
Set rng = Application.Intersect(Target, Me.Range("H3:H1000"))
If Not rng Is Nothing Then
UnprotectMe
'process each cell
For Each c In rng.Cells
Me.Cells.Cells(c.Row, "I").Locked = _
(UCase(Trim(Me.Cells(c.Row, "H").Value)) <> "YES")
Next c
ProtectMe
End If
End Sub
Sub UnprotectMe()
Me.Unprotect Password:=PW
End Sub
Sub ProtectMe()
Me.protect userinterfaceonly:=True, Password:=PW
End Sub
I am trying to link a range of cells to a text box, the only problem is if I edit the text box, it will write in any cell. I want to limit that ability to a specific range ("C4 to C11"). Here is my code:
Dim PreviousCell As Range
Private Sub Worksheet_SelectionChange(ByVal Target As Range)
If Target.Column = 3 Then ActiveSheet.TextBox1.Text = Target
If Not PreviousCell Is Nothing Then
Debug.Print PreviousCell.Address
End If
Set PreviousCell = Target ' This needs to be the last line of code.
End Sub
Private Sub TextBox1_Change()
ActiveCell.Value = TextBox1
End Sub
Private Sub TextBox1_Change()
If ActiveCell.Column = 3 Then ActiveCell.Value = TextBox1
End Sub
