Hey,

I have a very complex file, lots of VBA that i have taken over from someone else. I am trying to lock Column E8:E100 if the cell is not blank on a milestone tab (e.g if there is text in column E8:E100 lock the cell so no one can change it. I have tried lots and cant get it working!

I have separate VBA to lock and unlock the worksheet.

Any help much appreciated :)

Thanks,
 

Excel Facts

Last used cell?
Press Ctrl+End to move to what Excel thinks is the last used cell.
This does it but remember that all cells start with locked selected but nothing happens till the worksheet is protected

VBA Code:
Dim Aloop As Long

Sub LockCellIfBlank()

For Aloop = 8 To 100
    If IsEmpty(Range("E" & Aloop).Value) Then Range("E" & Aloop).Locked = True
Next Aloop

End Sub
