Asking user a password in VBA
Asking user a password in VBA
(OP)
I've just finish a complex workbook with macro's to streamline the calculation process and my boss has asked me to put it up on hte intranet. However only a restricted amount of user are 'allowed' to have access to the module so I programmed a VBA macro to check user ID. The next step is to program VBA to ask the user his passowrd for verification (and ofcourse masking the password when the user is typing)
Any idees ??

You can display a userform on file open and ask for a password - if password matches with the stored one the file opens otherwise the file closes.
Or you can extract the username if you're working in WIN NT. You may wish to match the username with your stored usernames and grant access accordingly.
