Command Button Changes Data Each Time It Is Pressed - Want it to workonce per worksheet.

[f252863]

I want to prevent a user from accidentally changing the data more than
once but keep in mind the worksheet is copied every day on to a new
tab with the current date on it (so it must be prevented only on that
worksheet).

Here is the current code:

Private Sub CommandButton58_Click()
Range("P203:S232").Select
Selection.Copy
Range("P202:S231").Select
ActiveSheet.PasteSpecial Format:=3, Link:=1, DisplayAsIcon:=False,
_
IconFileName:=False
ActiveSheet.Select
ActiveWorkbook.SendMail Recipients:=Range("i12", "i13"),
Subject:=Range("i11")
ActiveWindow.SelectedSheets.PrintOut Copies:=1, Collate:=True
End Sub

I was thinking of adding code that would check a cell value, if blank
then change to "Done" and copy the range, if not blank (i.e., if user
clicks again) then skip copying of cell range. How do I write this
and is this a good way to do it?

Thanks!

Your suggested method would work if you do something like

Private Sub CommandButton58_Click()
If Range("A1").Value <> "Done" then
---- your code here-----
Range("A1").Value = "Done"
Else
MsgBox("Can't do that on this sheet")
End If
End Sub

An alternative might be to compare the sheet name to the current date and
enable/disable the button accordingly. The exact method for this would
depend on the format of the date on the sheet name

Thanks Ian,

I had to modify it a little as making A1="Done" means that it will
carry over when the sheet is copied. As I have a macro to copy the
sheet it will now delete the A1 cell on the new sheet.

Cheers

Hadn't thought that far ahead, but glad it worked.
