utomating your protected Pivot refresh. I understand exactly what you need. The most common issue with refreshing pivot tables on protected sheets is that standard macros will trigger a runtime error. To solve this, I will write a lightweight, event-driven VBA script (Workbook_Open and Worksheet_Change) that silently unprotects the target sheet, updates the PivotCache the moment your source data changes, and instantly re-protects the sheet before the user even notices. Here is what I will deliver for this quick task: An automated Workbook_Open trigger so it updates on launch. A Worksheet_Change event tied specifically to your data input sheet. Clean code that handles the protection/unprotection sequence smoothly in Excel 365. I can build and test this file and hand it over to you within the next hour for immediate use. Quick technical question: For the worksheet protection, do you want me to safely hardcode your unprotect password directly within the locked VBA module, or is the worksheet currently protected without a password?

Hi, I can create the Excel VBA macro to refresh your pivot table automatically while keeping the workbook/worksheet protected. I can handle: - Refresh when the workbook is opened - Refresh when the source data is updated - Excel 365 compatibility - Protected worksheet workflow - Clean VBA code with short comments - Testing directly on your workbook before delivery My usual approach is to safely refresh the pivot cache/table and reapply protection as needed, so the user-facing sheet remains protected while the pivot data stays updated. Please send the workbook and let me know the data sheet name, pivot table sheet name, and whether the sheet protection uses a password. I can start immediately and deliver within 1 day. Best, Qi

Hi, I can add the Excel 365 VBA macro to refresh your pivot table automatically when the workbook opens and when the source data is updated. I will make it work with the protected worksheet by temporarily handling protection in the macro, refreshing the pivot cache/table safely, then restoring protection so the workbook remains locked for normal use. I can deliver the updated workbook plus a short note showing where the code is placed and how to test the open/update refresh behavior.
