I use following code in excel so that I can Outline with + and - in protected sheets.
Now I also want to format columns (and/or cells) in these prtected sheets. Is this possible?
Kind regards,
Ricco
Private Sub Workbook_Open()
For Each Sheet In Worksheets
Sheet.Unprotect Password:="riccowendy"
Sheet.EnableOutlining = True
Sheet.Protect Password:="riccowendy", UserInterfaceOnly:=True
Next
End Sub
Have a try on following sub.
Sub DoOutline()
For Each sht In Worksheets
sht.Unprotect Password:="riccowendy"
sht.Cells.Borders(xlDiagonalDown).LineStyle = xlNone
sht.Cells.Borders(xlDiagonalUp).LineStyle = xlNone
With sht.Cells.Borders(xlEdgeLeft)
.LineStyle = xlContinuous
.ColorIndex = xlAutomatic
.TintAndShade = 0
.Weight = xlThin
End With
With sht.Cells.Borders(xlEdgeTop)
.LineStyle = xlContinuous
.ColorIndex = xlAutomatic
.TintAndShade = 0
.Weight = xlThin
End With
With sht.Cells.Borders(xlEdgeBottom)
.LineStyle = xlContinuous
.ColorIndex = xlAutomatic
.TintAndShade = 0
.Weight = xlThin
End With
With sht.Cells.Borders(xlEdgeRight)
.LineStyle = xlContinuous
.ColorIndex = xlAutomatic
.TintAndShade = 0
.Weight = xlThin
End With
With sht.Cells.Borders(xlInsideVertical)
.LineStyle = xlContinuous
.ColorIndex = xlAutomatic
.TintAndShade = 0
.Weight = xlThin
End With
With sht.Cells.Borders(xlInsideHorizontal)
.LineStyle = xlContinuous
.ColorIndex = xlAutomatic
.TintAndShade = 0
.Weight = xlThin
End With
sht.Protect Password:="riccowendy", UserInterfaceOnly:=True
Next
End Sub
Google "vba excel change format on protected sheets" did help with this:learn.microsoft.com ... allowformattingcells
Sub ProtectionOptions()
ActiveSheet.Unprotect Password:="riccowendy"
'Allow cells to be formatted on a protected worksheet.
If ActiveSheet.Protection.AllowFormattingCells = False Then
ActiveSheet.Protect AllowFormattingCells:=True

I recorded a macro to create a new Pivot Table style so that whenever I create a new worksheet, this Pivot Table Style is added as the default for the Workbook. However, it does not seem to work when I try to run it on a new workbook. At first, I thought it might be the names (i.e. Sheet1), but even when everything matches it errors out on the first line. I hate having to go in and add this new pivot table style to every report I make, so if anyone has any tips, I'd greatly appreciate it. I'm a complete novice at VBA, so if there are any suggestions for making this code shorter, that would be of great help too!
EDIT: The code does not have curly quotations - that was me renaming it for posting.
Additional Edit: This is the error I get:
VBA Error: Run-time error '5': invalid procedure call or arguement
When I hit Debug, it takes me to the first line of code, which is highlighted in yellow: ActiveWorkbook.TableStyles.Add (“Overview”)

I have a code that does a loop through a worksheets, if there is a value 2 inside a cell in column S, then I want to insert a row with a specific layout. I have the code, but it takes ages to complete. I've tried replacing .select function, but because I need a specific layout, I don't know how to avoid this.
LastRowMatchC = Worksheets("Compliance").Cells(Rows.Count, 1).End(xlUp).Row
Dim rngc As Range, rc As Long
Set rngc = Range("S8:S" & LastRowMatchC)
For rc = rngc.Count To 1 Step -1
If rngc(rc).Value = 2 Then
rngc(rc + 1).EntireRow.Insert
rngc(rc + 1).EntireRow.Select
With Selection.Interior
.Pattern = xlSolid
.PatternColorIndex = xlAutomatic
.ThemeColor = xlThemeColorAccent1
.TintAndShade = 0.599993896298105
.PatternTintAndShade = 0
End With
Selection.Borders(xlDiagonalDown).LineStyle = xlNone
Selection.Borders(xlDiagonalUp).LineStyle = xlNone
With Selection.Borders(xlEdgeLeft)
.LineStyle = xlContinuous
.ColorIndex = 0
.TintAndShade = 0
.Weight = xlThin
End With
With Selection.Borders(xlEdgeTop)
.LineStyle = xlContinuous

I'm trying to correct not my code. I noticed repeatable code:
With selection.Borders(xlEdgeRight)
.LineStyle = xlContinuous
.Weight = xlMedium
.ColorIndex = xlAutomatic
End With
With selection.Borders(xlEdgeRight)
.LineStyle = xlContinuous
.Weight = xlThin
.ColorIndex = xlAutomatic
End With
First, I wrote a procedure:
Sub BorderAutomatic(border As border)
border.LineStyle = xlContinuous
border.Weight = xlThin
border.ColorIndex = xlAutomatic
End Sub
BorderAutomatic (selection.Borders(xlEdgeRight))
to shorten all cases where weight is thin, now I would like to shorten cases where weight is medium. To do this I add next argument:
Sub BorderAutomatic(border As border, borderWeight As XlBorderWeight)
border.LineStyle = xlContinuous
'border.Weight = xlThin
border.Weight = borderWeight
border.ColorIndex = xlAutomatic
End Sub
BorderAutomatic (selection.Borders(xlEdgeRight), xlThin)
I get an Error: 'Expected: ='
How should I write this?

I have made a vba macro that works fine with Excel 2013, but have error with Excel 2016. The macro is very simple and is taken from "recorded macro": it set borders to some cells.
The problem (I suppose) is that cells included also filtered rows:
column_1
cells(1;1) = "aa"
cells(2;1) = 2
cells(3;1) = 1
cells(4;1) = 2
cells(5;1) = 1
cells(6;1) = 1
filtered with "1" on the first row
enter image description here
So running the following macro,
you have error '1004' on ".weight " row
enter image description here
Giving OK you have:
enter image description here
and if you stop the macro now and try to save the file,
you'll get an error:
enter image description here
Please note that this happens only with Excel 2016, Excel 2013 has no problems
This is the complete macro:
Option Explicit
Sub test()
Sheets(1).Select
Range("A1:A6").Select
Selection.Borders(xlDiagonalDown).LineStyle = xlNone
Selection.Borders(xlDiagonalUp).LineStyle = xlNone
With Selection.Borders(xlEdgeLeft)
.LineStyle = xlContinuous
.ColorIndex = 0
.TintAndShade = 0
.Weight = xlThin ' ==>>>>ERROR HERE
End With
With Selection.Borders(xlEdgeTop)
.LineStyle = xlContinuous
.ColorIndex = 0
.TintAndShade = 0
.Weight = xlThin
End With
With Selection.Borders(xlEdgeBottom)
.LineStyle = xlContinuous
.ColorIndex = 0
.TintAndShade = 0
.Weight = xlThin
End With
With Selection.Borders(xlEdgeRight)
.LineStyle = xlContinuous
.ColorIndex = 0
.TintAndShade = 0
.Weight = xlThin
End With
With Selection.Borders(xlInsideVertical)
.LineStyle = xlContinuous
.ColorIndex = 0
.TintAndShade = 0
.Weight = xlThin
End With
With Selection.Borders(xlInsideHorizontal)
.LineStyle = xlContinuous
.ColorIndex = 0
.TintAndShade = 0
.Weight = xlThin
End With
Please help
Thx
Change range and try:
Option Explicit
Sub test()
With ThisWorkbook.Worksheets("Sheet1").Range("A1:A6").Borders(xlEdgeLeft)
.LineStyle = xlContinuous
.ColorIndex = 0
.TintAndShade = 0
.Weight = xlThin
End With
End Sub
I've been reading Microsoft documentation and it seems the selection is unneccesary. Try this:
sub test()
Range("A1:A6").Borders.LineStyle = xlNone
With Range("A1:A6").Borders(xlEdgeLeft)
.LineStyle = xlContinuous
.ColorIndex = 0
.TintAndShade = 0
.Weight = xlThin ' ==>>ERROR HERE
End With
End sub
You may have to throw ActiveWorksheet before the range or a Sheet( "Sheet1") depending on what sheet you are on when the macro runs. Hope this helps.
In the below code, how can I add grid-lines to the entire Excel sheet?
Set objApp = CreateObject("Excel.Application")
objApp.Visible = True
Set wb = objApp.Workbooks.Open("template.xls", True, False)
wb.Sheets(1).Rows(3).Delete
wb.Sheets(1).Range("A1").Value = title
'need to format column E & F as currency
Set objApp = Nothing
This is the long answer (the code Excel VBA generates when you record a Macro). You can definitely shorten this up. For instance, you don't need to set the .ColorIndex or .TintAndShade properties just to do a standard black [edit] border.
Cells.Select
Selection.Borders(xlDiagonalDown).LineStyle = xlNone
Selection.Borders(xlDiagonalUp).LineStyle = xlNone
With Selection.Borders(xlEdgeLeft)
.LineStyle = xlContinuous
.ColorIndex = 0
.TintAndShade = 0
.Weight = xlThin
End With
With Selection.Borders(xlEdgeTop)
.LineStyle = xlContinuous
.ColorIndex = 0
.TintAndShade = 0
.Weight = xlThin
End With
With Selection.Borders(xlEdgeBottom)
.LineStyle = xlContinuous
.ColorIndex = 0
.TintAndShade = 0
.Weight = xlThin
End With
With Selection.Borders(xlEdgeRight)
.LineStyle = xlContinuous
.ColorIndex = 0
.TintAndShade = 0
.Weight = xlThin
End With
With Selection.Borders(xlInsideVertical)
.LineStyle = xlContinuous
.ColorIndex = 0
.TintAndShade = 0
.Weight = xlThin
End With
With Selection.Borders(xlInsideHorizontal)
.LineStyle = xlContinuous
.ColorIndex = 0
.TintAndShade = 0
.Weight = xlThin
End With
EDIT
For gridlines:
ActiveWindow.DisplayGridlines = True
you can also use:
Windows(1).DisplayGridlines = True
Try this:
ActiveWindow.DisplayGridlines = True
That should turn the gridlines on. And, of course, setting the property to False will turn them off.
