Hello,

I have multiples columns group.
Is it possible to protect columns ("E:I") that are grouped and appear a box to insert password when attempting to ungroup columns ("E:I")?

Thanks.

Excel Facts

Format cells as date
Select range and press Ctrl+Shift+3 to format cells as date. (Shift 3 is the # sign which sort of looks like a small calendar).
If you password protect your worksheet it will deny access to grouping and ungrouping as excel does not allow grouping/ungrouping when the sheet is protected, however if you would like to have a password protected sheet and still group/ungroup then use this VBA.

Private Sub Workbook_Open( )
With Sheet1
.Protect Password:="Secret", UserInterfaceOnly:=True
.EnableOutlining = True
End With
End Sub
