组列但不保护它们，密码保护组列之一

Question

I Have 3 columns a,b,c which I want to group and show as grouped( collapsed section). Column B is locked and when I try to ungroup a,b,c columns it asks me password. I dont want it to ask the password as only column B is password protected not the grouping ungrouping action.

How can I solve this problem in excel/vba

Answer 1

you can add a piece of code to run at beginning and end of your routine. This will un-protect the sheet, run your code, then protect it again.

Begin:

Dim mypassword As String

mypassword = "yourPassword"

ActiveSheet.Unprotect Password:=mypassword

End:

ActiveSheet.Protect Password:=mypassword
