My Excel VBA unlocks the desired cells but can not relock when criteria changes.
In my Excel utility, if A1 has value "A", then it will find B1 in the range A8:A13 and unlock the cells of the row having value of B1 and column having value "b" and column having value "c" (Here cells B9 and C9 to be unlocked). My VBA works here but when I change the value of B1 (e.g. "w" to "e" it again unlock the corresponding cells e.g. cells B10 and C10 but it does not relock the cells unlocked earlier i.e. cells B9 and C9. They remains unlocked.
Private Sub Worksheet_SelectionChange(ByVal Target As Range)
If [A1] = "A" Then
ActiveSheet.Unprotect ("")
[=INDEX(A8:F13,MATCH(B1,A8:A13,0),MATCH("b",A8:F8,0))].Locked = False
[=INDEX(A8:F13,MATCH(B1,A8:A13,0),MATCH("c",A8:F8,0))].Locked = False
ActiveSheet.Protect ("")
Else
ActiveSheet.Unprotect ("")
[=INDEX(A8:F13,MATCH(B1,A8:A13,0),MATCH("b",A8:F8,0))].Locked = True
[=INDEX(A8:F13,MATCH(B1,A8:A13,0),MATCH("c",A8:F8,0))].Locked = True
ActiveSheet.Protect ("")
End If
End Sub
change code to this:
