Hi All,

I want to know how I could add permissions which would be password protected on a user level to a holiday tracker.

The breakdown of groups will be:
Upper management: permission to view and edit all levels.
All other users: Permission to view and edit only their own row of data, such that they're unable to view other people's

Upper management will have one password between themselves to view and edit everything if required, and all other users (10-15 users) will each have their own passwords.

At the moment each row has a different user and their holiday leave, and the issue is that people do not wish to share when they are having leave, and how much leave they are taking from other employees, however understandably, upper management require to view and access these records to ensure pay, approval and sick leave/absences are recorded.

Many thanks in advance for your time with this query!

How to calculate loan payments in Excel?
Use the PMT function: =PMT(5%/12,60,-25000) is for a $25,000 loan, 5% annual interest, 60 month loan.
Hi,
I would use a login box made using a userform, once OK is clicked to sign in, change the locked property of the cells that particular role/user is allowed to edit
if the userform is closed before correct user/password entered then closes Excel
You could have the data (User/Passwords) in the VBA code and lock it down but the better thing would be to send a query to an Access DB or even a sql DB so no one can see that sensitive data

That's where I would start

Thanks Excel Fan
