Well, it's 800 lines of VBA code - but it does a lot of things unique for my
needs.
It manages protection of the sheet, has a 'user' mode and an 'admin' mode,
it allows an admin to make some lines protected so a user can't change a
baseline WBS but can add more detail lines to already baselined rows.
It also manages durations, start, end dates, skipping holidays and weekends
in the date calculations, and a lot of other things.
If you're just interested in a simple capability - which has just the
autonumbering etc I could strip that out and post it or give it to you.
If you're interested, repost or send me a note - and we can collaborate a
bit via a sharepoint site or something.
