I have Workbook with both Sheet/workbook is protected.
I have a code to lock/disable certain range of cells when the drop-down value "no" And unlock/enable when value of drop down is "yes"
Whereas, drop-down value and cells I would like to disable are on different sheets.
Dropdown on "Main Sheet"
Range of cells on "Sub Sheet"
I also need to throw a prompt to user when he clicks on protected range and when the value is set to "No".
I am using following code on "Main Sheet"
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
Dim worksh As Integer
Dim worksheetexists As Boolean
Dim str1 As String
If UCase$(Range("E30").Value) = "YES" Then
Sheets("SubSheet").Select
Sheets("SubSheet").Range("E20:I3019").Locked = False
Sheets("SubSheet").Range("E20:I3019").Activate
Else
Sheets("SubSheet").Range("E20:I3019").Locked = True
End If
End Sub
Following code on Sub Sheet
Private Sub WorkBook_SheetChange(ByVal sh as Object, ByVal Target as Range)
If Intersect (Target, sh.Range("$E$19:$I$3000")) Is Nothing Then Exit Sub
MsgBox "Please select the appropriate dropdown on MAIN Sheet " & Target.Address
With Application
.EnableEvents = False
.UnDo
.EnableEvents = True
End With
End Sub
Not sure, where am I going wrong as Its not throwing prompt when user clicks on protected cells.
First. You should remove the Sheets("SubSheet").Select. If you running your code and your are not inside the sheet, it could occur an error. try to do:
with ThisWorkbook.Sheets("SubSheet")
If UCase$(Range("E30").Value) = "YES" Then
.Range("E20:I3019").Locked = False
.Range("E20:I3019").Activate
Else
.Range("E20:I3019").Locked = True
End If
end with
Second. You don't return the target range. I mean your Private Sub WorkBook_SheetChange waits for a ByVal Target as a parameter and your Private Sub Worksheet_Change returns any value.It should be a function returning the range or the cell you have selected for me.
EDIT:
with ThisWorkbook.Sheets("SubSheet")
If UCase$(Range("E30").Value) = "YES" Then
.Range("E20:I3019").Locked = False
Else
.Range("E20:I3019").Locked = True
WorkBook_SheetChange Range("E20:I3019")
End If
end with
And
Private Sub WorkBook_SheetChange(ByVal Target as Range)
If Intersect (Target, Range("$E$19:$I$3000")) Is Nothing Then Exit Sub
MsgBox "Please select the appropriate dropdown on MAIN Sheet " & Target.Address
With Application
.EnableEvents = False
.UnDo
.EnableEvents = True
End With
End Sub

I have a checkbox that changes the color of a cell if it is checked. The user can't print the page until a value is entered into the highlighted field. Both the checkbox and restrict printing modules are working properly.
How do I change the color of the highlighted field once the user enters a value? I wrote the below code, but it only works when I manually run it. I am newer to VBA so any help is appreciated!
Private Sub Can_Print()
If IsEmpty(Range("G54")) = False Then
MsgBox "You may now print."
Range("G54").Interior.Color = RGB(221, 235, 247)
End If
End Sub
Put this code under the worksheet you want it run for:
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
If Target.Value <> "" Then
MsgBox "You may now print"
Target.Interior.Color = RGB(221, 235, 247)
End If
End Sub
if you don't want it to work for any cell then just replace target with the range you want.
In case you haven't got it yet, please check this . You need to copy your code onto the worksheet events. You need to attach your code to the worksheet change event.
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
Dim KeyCells As Range
Set KeyCells = Range("G5:G6")
If Not Application.Intersect(KeyCells, Range(Target.Address)) Is Nothing Then
Application.EnableEvents = False
If IsEmpty(Target) = False Then
'MsgBox "You may now print."
Target.Interior.Color = RGB(22, 235, 247)
Else
Target.Interior.ColorIndex = 0
End If
Application.EnableEvents = True
End If
End Sub
I am attempting to get my function "ScanColor" to return True when any cell in the range "lockdown" has the interior color red.
If a cell in the range "lockdown" does have a cell that is red i'd like to prompt a msg box.
Thank you.
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Excel.Range)
If ScanColor(Range("lockdown")) = True Then
MsgBox "You have an invalid cell!"
End If
End Sub
Private Function ScanColor(Cells As Range) As Boolean
Dim cell As Range
For Each cell In Cells
If cell.Interior.ColorIndex = 3 Then
ScanColor = True
Exit For
End If
Next
End Function
A change from conditional formatting must be determined from the DisplayFormat property.
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Excel.Range)
If ScanColor(Range("lockdown")) Then
MsgBox "You have an invalid cell!"
End If
End Sub
Private Function ScanColor(Cells As Range) As Boolean
Dim cell As Range
For Each cell In Cells
If cell.displayformat.Interior.ColorIndex = 3 Then
ScanColor = True
Exit For
End If
Next
End Function
There is some question as to whether the Worksheet_Change will be triggered. You might want a Worksheet_Calculate instead.
Is it possible to make the msgbox of this code to appear only once? My problem is that if the user inserts data i.e. from row 501 until 510 the message box will appear 9 times, and I want to have it only once. The reason of this is because the code looks in each cell to verify if something is inserted, and then the content is deleted and the msg appears. If it is possible I would like to keep the format of the code below, but only to show the msgbox once. If not, any suggestions would be welcomed.
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
Dim cell22 As Range
Application.EnableEvents = False
For Each cell22 In Target
If Not Application.Intersect(cell22, Range("a501:z6000")) Is Nothing Then
If cell22.Value <> "" Then
cell22.ClearContents
MsgBox "You cannot insert more than 500 rows", vbInformation, "Important:"
End If
End If
Next cell22
Application.EnableEvents = True
End Sub
I would suggest another way.
The tasks which access the worksheet, such as ClearContents takes the longer to process.
So instead of clearing the contents each time inside the loop for a single cell, and repeat it a few hundred times, use ClrRng as a Range object. Every time the If criteria is met, you add it to ClrRng using the Application.Union function.
Once you finish looping through all your cells, clear the entire cells in ClrRng at the same time.
Code
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
Dim cell22 As Range, b As Boolean
Dim ClrRng As Range ' define a range to add all cells that will be cleared
Application.EnableEvents = False
For Each cell22 In Target
If Not Application.Intersect(cell22, Range("A501:Z6000")) Is Nothing Then
If cell22.Value <> "" Then
If Not ClrRng Is Nothing Then
Set ClrRng = Application.Union(ClrRng, cell22)
Else
Set ClrRng = cell22
End If
End If
End If
Next cell22
If Not ClrRng Is Nothing Then ' make sure there is at least 1 cell that passed the If criteria
ClrRng.ClearContents ' clear all cell's contents at once
MsgBox "You cannot insert more than 500 rows", vbInformation, "Important:"
End If
Application.EnableEvents = True
End Sub
Try this:
Option Explicit
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
Dim cell22 As Range
Application.EnableEvents = False
For Each cell22 In Target
If Not Application.Intersect(cell22, Range("a501:z6000")) Is Nothing Then
If cell22.Value <> "" Then
cell22.ClearContents
GoTo displayMsg
End If
End If
Next cell22
Application.EnableEvents = True
Exit Sub
displayMsg:
MsgBox "You cannot insert more than 500 rows", vbInformation, "Important:"
Application.EnableEvents = True
End Sub
This will only show it once but clear each cell which is non-blank.
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
Dim cell22 As Range, b As Boolean
Application.EnableEvents = False
For Each cell22 In Target
If Not Application.Intersect(cell22, Range("a501:z6000")) Is Nothing Then
If cell22.Value <> "" Then
cell22.ClearContents
b = True
End If
End If
Next cell22
If b Then MsgBox "You cannot insert more than 500 rows", vbInformation, "Important:"
Application.EnableEvents = True
End Sub
I'm creating a dynamic hyperlink that will filter a table on another sheet (Sheet15).
My goal is to have the user be able to select a cell on Sheet3 and have the VALUE of this cell be the filter on the other sheet.
Here is my code so far:
Private Sub Worksheet_FollowHyperlink(ByVal Target As Hyperlink)
If Target.Type = msoHyperlinkRange And Target.Range.Address = "$S$15" Then
Application.ScreenUpdating = False
Sheet15.Visible = True
Sheet15.ListObjects("Table17").Range.AutoFilter Field:=19, Criteria1:=ActiveCell.Value
Sheet15.Activate
Application.ScreenUpdating = True
End If
End Sub
However, when I click the hyperlink, the table is not filtered at all, so I gotta be doing something wrong.
Can anyone assist?
UPDATE
Here is updated code.
Cell S17 is now the value that I want to filter the table to:
Private Sub Worksheet_FollowHyperlink(ByVal Target As Hyperlink)
If Target.Type = msoHyperlinkRange And Target.Range.Address = "$S$15" Then
Application.ScreenUpdating = False
Sheet15.Visible = True
Sheet15.ListObjects("Table17").Range.AutoFilter Field:=19, Criteria1:=Sheet3.Range("S17").Value
Sheet15.Activate
Application.ScreenUpdating = True
End If
End Sub
But the issue remains. When I click they hyperlink, I will be brought to this other sheet, but the table is not filtered at all.
sticking to your original plans, and assuming column "A" is the one with cities names, place the following in your worksheet code pane
Option Explicit
Dim lastCell As Range '<--| declare a module scoped range variable to store the last cell selected by the user, if "valid"
Private Sub Worksheet_SelectionChange(ByVal Target As Range)
If Target.Address = "$S$15" Then Exit Sub '<-- do nothing if user selected cell with hyperlink
Set lastCell = Intersect(Target, Columns("A")) '<-- change "Columns("A") to a named range with your cities
End Sub
Private Sub Worksheet_FollowHyperlink(ByVal Target As Hyperlink)
If lastCell Is Nothing Then Exit Sub '<--| no action if lastCell has not been properly set by 'Worksheet_SelectionChange()'
If Target.Type = msoHyperlinkRange And Target.Range.Address = "$S$15" Then
Application.ScreenUpdating = False
Sheet15.Visible = True
Sheet15.ListObjects("Table17").Range.AutoFilter Field:=19, Criteria1:=lastCell.Value '<--| set the criteria as 'lastCell' value
Sheet15.Activate
Application.ScreenUpdating = True
End If
End Sub
as per comments, you change Columns("A") reference in Worksheet_SelectionChange() to your actual range with cities names (perhaps a named range)
Note: unless the hyperlink points to itself, ActiveCell.Value will be the value at the link destination: use Target.Range.Value if you want the value from the cell containing the link.
Private Sub Worksheet_FollowHyperlink(ByVal Target As Hyperlink)
If Target.Type = msoHyperlinkRange And Target.Range.Address = "$S$15" Then
Application.ScreenUpdating = False
With Sheet15
.Visible = True
.ListObjects("Table17").Range.AutoFilter Field:=19, _
Criteria1:=Target.Range.Value
.Activate
End With
Application.ScreenUpdating = True
End If
End Sub
Question looks big but answer for you guys will be simple
I have code that works for first time and not working for second attempt.
I have 2 sheets "Menu" and "Subsheet"
Basically, i have data validation drop-down set on Menu Sheet yes/no values.
First scenario
Selecting "Yes" will enable the cells on second sheet (Subsheet)
Selecting "No" will disable cells on second sheet(Subsheet).
Second scenario,
User selecting "no" and selecting second sheet will throw a prompt for him to enable cells "ok" and cancel.
Select "ok" will enable cells and value in dropdown will be changed to "yes"
selecting "cancel" in msgprompt will disable cells and value in dropdown will remain "no"
Msg prompt should not be displayed, if user has selected "yes" in dropdown..
Question:Code works fine, until it comes to second scenario.
User selects "No" and selects second sheet in the message prompt, he selects "no". Now cells are disabled.
If user comes back to Menu Sheet and selects "Yes", will not enable cells.
Not sure what is it not enabling cells now. Please help
Code on Menu Sheet
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
If Intersect(Target, Range("A11")) Is Nothing Then Exit Sub
Application.EnableEvents = False
Select Case (Target.Value)
Case "YES"
Call uEnable
Case "NO"
Call uDisable
Exit Sub
End Select
Application.EnableEvents = True
End Sub
Code on SubSheet
Private Sub Worksheet_Activate()
UDisable
End Sub
Code on Module
Option Explicit
Private mMessageDisplayed As Boolean
Public Sub uDisable()
If ActiveSheet.ProtectContents And Not mMessageDisplayed Then
mMessageDisplayed = True
If ThisWorkbook.Sheets("Menu").Range("A11") = "NO" Then
If MsgBox("Cells are locked on current sheet, press ok to Unlock", vbOKCancel + vbInformation) = vbOK Then
ThisWorkbook.Worksheets("Menu").Range("A11") = "YES"
With ThisWorkbook.Sheets("Subsheet")
ActiveWorkbook.Unprotect Password:="xyz"
.Range("E13:E14").Locked = False
ActiveWorkbook.Unprotect Password:="xyz"
End With
Else
ThisWorkbook.Worksheets("Menu").Range("A11") = "NO"
With ThisWorkbook.Sheets("Subsheet")
ActiveWorkbook.Unprotect Password:="xyz"
.Range("E13:E14").Locked = True
ActiveWorkbook.Protect Password:="xyz"
End With
End If
Else
Exit Sub
End If
End If
End Sub
Second module
Public Sub uEnable()
With ThisWorkbook.Sheets("Subsheet")
ActiveWorkbook.Unprotect Password:="xyz"
.Range("E13:E14").Locked = False
ActiveWorkbook.Protect Password:="xyz"
End With
End Sub
I tried to use debug method, couldn't identify the root cause.
Two intersect codes
`Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
If Intersect(Target, Range("E42")) Is Nothing Then Exit Sub
Application.EnableEvents = False
Dim inputCell As Range
Set inputCell = Range("E43")
Select Case (Target.Value)
Case "Specific Days"
inputCell.Locked = False
inputCell.Activate
Case Else
'This handles **ANY** other value in the dropdown
inputCell.Locked = True
' inputCell.Clear
End Select
Application.EnableEvents = True
If Intersect(Target, Range("E29")) Is Nothing Then Exit Sub
Application.EnableEvents = False
Select Case (Target.Value)
Case "YES"
Call Notify
Case "NO"
Call NotifyUserGeneral
End Select
Application.EnableEvents = True
End Sub`
Remove the Exit Sub from underneath Call uDisable. Otherwise Application.EnableEvents = True never gets called...
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
If Intersect(Target, Range("A1")) Is Nothing Then Exit Sub
Application.EnableEvents = False
Select Case (Target.Value)
Case "YES"
Call uEnable
Case "NO"
Call uDisable
'Exit Sub <---Can't do this.
End Select
Application.EnableEvents = True
End Sub
...and there isn't any other code that will turn them back on. You can't rely on an event handler to set Application.EnableEvents = True after you've turned off event handling.
