Protect Workbook

Posted on Jan 10, 2005 at 02:18 PM 58 Views

Does anyone know a method to protect an Excel workbook from Abap (the equivalent of 'Tools->Protection->Protect Workbook in Excel)?

Regards,

John.

    Hi Fuat,

    Thanks for the quick reaction, but that is not the solution. The 'Protect' method of the spreadsheet interface just protects cells from being overwritten. I want to protect the workbook from all kinds of editing to the structure (e.g. renaming sheets) as the 'Tools->Protection->Protect Workbook' does.

    Regards,

    John.

      Wow, that's my second lot of points today. I think I need a nap.

      I just use the VBA Help file that comes with Microsoft Excel (if you chose the option to install it). Open up the VBA editor from the Macros menu in Excel and then go to its help menu.

      Cheers,

      Scott
