Hi Experts,
I have a protected view file and a normal one. I am trying to run the above code from the normal one but I'm getting run time error 91 object variable or with block variable not set. Any ideas how I can fix this?
regards,

Excel Facts

Select a hidden cell
Somehide hide payroll data in column G? Press F5. Type G1. Enter. Look in formula bar while you arrow down through G.
I've found the solution and it is this:
code
Application.ProtectedViewWindows(1).Edit
ActiveWindow.ActivateNext
The problem was that VBA doesn't recognise a protected view workbook as a workbook.
