How do I assign a password to a button in excel?

Thanks,

Mark

It isn't clear what you mean. You can't set up a command button
such that you need a password to click it.

Hi Mark,

Try something like:

'=============>>
Private Sub CommandButton1_Click()
Dim res As Variant
Const PWORD As String = "ABCD" '<<==== CHANGE

res = InputBox("Insert password")

If res <> PWORD Then Exit Sub
'Your button code
End Sub
'<<=============

I have a button driven spreadsheet used on a network. I want to password
protect the button which is used for uncustomising things when I make
changes.

Basically the button runs a variation of the auto close macro without
actually closing down. When the button is pressed I want excel to ask for a
password.

Thanks,

Mark
