How would one put a date sensitive password on a workbook??? If I only want it activated after a certain date....So like if the date is >= July 1, 2011 then the workbook needs a password...

I know this is out there but ppl say you can do anything with VBA....

Thank you

Dave
 

Excel Facts

Create a Pivot Table on a Map
If your data has zip codes, postal codes, or city names, select the data and use Insert, 3D Map. (Found to right of chart icons).
Maybe like this in the ThisWorkbook module

Code:
Private Sub Workbook_Open()
If Date >= DateSerial(2011, 7, 1) Then
    If InputBox("Enter password") <> "pw" Then
        MsgBox "Wrong", vbExclamation
        Me.Close False
    End If
End If
End Sub
