Hello All
I am new to macros, but I have the feeling I will have to learn a little bit if I want to complete my goal.
I am trying to create 6 workbooks where 5 of the workbooks would be locked, but needed to be updating from the sixth workbook which would act as a master (with 5 sheets on it). To complicate everything 1 column from the locked workbooks need to be editable without a password and feed back to the respected master sheet. I would like to achieve that the 5 locked worksheets update when they are opened and they get locked again. The master sheet will not be locked.
I think the task can be completed with excel's query feature. This would create a pivot table in each of the 5 workbooks. I can than specify to only lock the columns I want to be locked and leave the column that need editing open.
My problem is the locking, updating and re-locking of the sheets. Is there somebody who could help me with this?
I have been googling for a couple of weeks now and I am not one step closer to solve this issue. I have found some macros that should work, but unfortunately I could not get the locked sheets to update.
Thank you very much for reading this post.
