bru'n water currently marked as restricted

[Dgallo]

hey folks, I've been using Bru'n water for probably the past 3 years. last week we needed to back up the laptop so i needed to reinstall the program. i can not click on or edit any of the tabs\cells in the work book. It is currently set as restricted and is asking for a password. Does anyone know how I would go about geting permission to access these sheets. I do not recall haing anyissues like this when I originally downloaded it,

I'm not a computer guy by any means but I recall having to do something that had to do with macro or something like that . Its been a while if I get a chance ill pull mine up . I use mine on Libreoffice

As far as I know all the cells outside of input cells have always been locked. If your version was unlocked.... you probably did it yourself at some point. I know I unlocked mine to add SMB calculations for LODO brewing and to add a Macro that uses solver to automatically calculate mineral and acid additions.

Might message Martin and ask him.

Right, if you're a registered user I'm sure Martin will fix you up with a fresh spreadsheet...

Cheers!

To give you a better idea. When I attempt to add my own water Profile, for example calcium which is 61 when and when I hit enter it says “

it’s the input cell that I’m unable to alter. Unable to change the ppm of input profile

@Dgallo I wonder if we can treat the problem rather than the symptoms. What version of Excel are you using?

 

[Dgallo]

It’s the latest excel. I’ve downloaded it on another computer and the same thing is happening. I think the current download link is protected. Maybe I need to donate and get the other version

I just pull down the Free Version and tested on 365 and 2019 and both work fine.

Are you willing to zip it and email it to me?

Here it is. Just change the extension to .xls and it should work.

Awesome thanks. I also think I found my issue. I had it as read only. Either way, it’s working now. Thank you!!!
