Hi,

I need to create a spreadsheet for my project (don’t worry it’s not homework). I have put as much as I can together but there are a few challenging things that I am stuck on and I need your technical expertise. I have attached the Excel file as well as a detailed Word file explaining exactly what’s going on (if you want some background).

This is what I need to add onto my spreadsheet – but I’m not sure how to do this. I have tried googling for hours but I haven’t found anything useful because these are quite particular requests.

- Password protection on each sheet (with different passwords per ‘person’ thaty they can customize). The main sheet should be only accessible by a certain ‘moderator’
- The line should highlight a certain colour when it’s a certain ‘type’ e.g. complete = blue.
- Anything you type (per row) into any ‘persons’ sheet should automatically type into the main sheet and change colour of course. The main sheet changes should override any other changes.
- I need a timer so if an issue isn’t resolved in 24 hours it turns a certain colour.

I just need the basic formulas etc and Ill extend it to suit my needs. (So please post really accurate instructions or an excel file or something please)

Thanks in advance!

One other thing....

If you type a row of data in sheet 2/3/4..... then it should automatically type in Sheet 1 (the main sheet). So if you change something in sheet 3 (for example) it should change in sheet 1 (including colours). And preferably in sheet 1 they should sort themseleves by sheet

e.g.

Sheet 2
[data]

Sheet 3
[data]

etc

Alternatively - you can use Access for this project. Not sure if it will be more useful though...

If you have such high requirements, then I believe that Access is what you want. However, I can't help you with that; I don't use Microsoft Office and I don't have an Access equivalent installed.
