If I am using line #1 below to add password to open than I can use line #2 for password to modify
why can't I use just line to add password to modify without password to open?
'line1 password to open
VBA Code:
.Password = Workbooks("MY WORKBOOK.xlsm").Sheets("TEST").Cells(I, 6).Value

'line#2 password to modify
Code:
.Protect Password:=Workbooks("MY WORKBOOK.xlsm").Sheets("TEST").Cells(I, 7).Value

Whats the difference between CONCAT and CONCATENATE?
The newer CONCAT function can reference a range of cells. =CONCATENATE(A1,A2,A3,A4,A5) becomes =CONCAT(A1:A5)
