Hey all,

I've created a VBA which at the end creates about 30-50 files which I wish to password protect. Easy enough, but what I want to do is be able to have the current month as part of the password automatically. So for example today the password will be PasswordJanuary or Password01 and next month it'll be PasswordFeburary or Password02.

This that possible?

If not maybe it creates the password from a cell and I manually change the password in that cell?

Thanks for any help
 

Excel Facts

Which came first: VisiCalc or Lotus 1-2-3?
Dan Bricklin and Bob Frankston debuted VisiCalc in 1979 as a Visible Calculator. Lotus 1-2-3 debuted in the early 1980's, from Mitch Kapor.
This should work
Code:
Dim mymonth As String
mymonth = Format(Month(Date), "00")

Sheets("Sheet6").Protect "password" & mymonth
