Hello All of you wonderfully helpful people-

I have a question for you.

We are trying to get our sales team to send us data on their accounts in Xcel via a template that we will be sending out, but we do not want the field to go back to this spreadsheet to use it for territory management. We will be sending out a template, they will be filling it out and sending it back to us and we will then analyze the data.

So, we would like to add macros that cut off access to the users after a specific date but allow us access to the data for analysis.

Or, maybe there is an easier way to do this...

It would be great if this would restrict cutting and pasting from the spreadsheet as well, but not necessary.

Thanks in Advance!

Jenny
 
Sure, testing it with a coworker by changing the date to 12/20/17 and it will not run because it says it's out of range... Would you mind running through the code and telling me how to read?

I just tested the code and it worked fine for me...you have to have more than one sheet visible tho or else it won't work. There always has to be at least one sheet visible.
