Protect only certain Cells, Columns or Rows in Excel

excel2007In the last post we saw how to Protect and Unprotect Excel sheets with password in general and in this post for advanced users who want just to protect only certain cells, columns, rows in an Excel sheet. This makes only certain sensitive cells as read-only while allowing the user to edit other cells or information.

So how to protect only certain cells in Excel 2007?

This tip is written for Excel 2007 but the idea maybe applied to earlier version like Excel 2003.
When you protect a sheet all the contents are protected because by default all the cells are set to be locked.
So Press the Keyboard Shortcut Ctrl + A to select all the cells of the sheet. Right click and choose Format cells. Go to the Protection tab and uncheck Locked option and click Ok.
Unlock all cells and columns in Excel 2007
Now select only the cells or columns, rows that you want to protect. Right click and choose Format cells again. Go to the protection tab and check Locked option and click Ok.
Protect only certain cells in Excel 2007
Go to Review tab, click Protect Sheet and protect the sheet using a password. See the previous post (How to Protect and Unprotect Excel Sheets) for more details.
Protect Sheet in Excel 2007
Now only certain cells of the sheet will be protected.
To unprotect, just go to the review tab, and click Unprotect sheet and enter the password.

Additional Tips: If you want users to be able to change the colors or fonts, choose format cells, columns and rows option while you protect the sheet.

Take a screen shot of Window XP

Ever see something on your screen that you’d like to email or save for later? With Microsoft Windows XP, you can take a screen shot and capture an exact image of what’s on the screen.

To take a screen shot and save it as a picture

  1. Click the window you want to capture. Press Alt+Print Screen by holding down the Alt key and then pressing the Print Screen key. The Print Screen key is near the upper-right corner of your keyboard. (Depending on the type of keyboard you have, the exact key names on your keyboard may vary slightly.)

    Note

    • You can take a screen shot of your entire desktop rather than just a single window by pressing the Print Screen key without holding down the Alt key.
  2. Click Start, click Accessories, and then click Paint.
  3. In the Paint window, click Edit, and then click Paste.
  4. When the image appears in the Paint window, click File, and then click Save As.
  5. In the Save As dialog box, in the File name box, type a name for the screen shot, and then click Save.
You can now print or email the saved screen shot just like you would any other picture.

Change Windows XP all sounds

You can personalize the sounds that your computer makes when different tasks happen, such as when you turn on your computer or when you receive an email or an instant message.
To obtain sounds, you can search the web for sound clips from your favorite songs, TV shows, and movies, and then download the clips to your computer. If you want to record your own sound clips, copy sound clips from a CD or DVD, or save anything else you can hear through your computer speakers, you can use Sound Recorder, a basic sound program that comes with Windows XP.
Sounds have to be in the .wav format; you can't use .mp3 or .wma sounds. Once you've downloaded or recorded some sounds, you can set them up to play in Windows.

To change the sound associated with a program event

  1. Log on to your computer as an administrator. Click Start, and then click Control Panel.
  2. Click Sounds, Speech, and Audio Devices.
  3. Click Change the sound scheme. The Sounds, Speech, and Audio Devices Properties dialog box appears.
  4. In the Program events list, click an event. Then, click the Play button to listen to the sound currently assigned to the event.
  5. To change the sound, click the Sounds list down arrow, and select a different system sound. To choose a sound that you have downloaded or recorded, click the Browse button, select the sound, and then click OK. Click the Play button again to preview the sound.
  6. When you are satisfied with your sounds, click Save As.
  7. In the Save Scheme As dialog box, type a name for your scheme, and then click OK.
  8. In the Sounds and Audio Devices Properties dialog box, click OK.

Change Windows 7 sounds

As usual, click on the link “Sounds”:
Windows 7 Sounds
Here, you will find all saved Windows 7 sound schemes:


Windows 7 Sound Schemes

Most of our themes come with new sound themes, which can be changed and customized here. If you want to apply a new sound file for “Critical Stop”, you simply click on “Browse” and locate the sound file that you want to assign for this error.

You can apply any WAV sound files as a replacement sound for:
“Asterisk”, “Close Program”, “Critical Battery Alarm”, “Critical Stop”, “Default Beep”, “Device Connect”, “Device Disconnect”, “Device Failed to Connect”, “Exclamation”, “Exit Windows”, “Low Battery Alarm”, “Maximize”, “Menu Command”, “Menu Pop-up”, “Minimize”, “New Fax Notification”, “New Mail Notification”, “Open Program”, “Print Complete”, “Program Error”, “Question”, “Restore Down”, “Restore Up”, “Select”, “Show Toolbar Band”, “System Notification”, “Windows Change Theme”, “Windows Logoff”, “Windows Logon”, “Windows User Account Control”, “Blocked Pop-up Windows”, “Complete Navigation”, “Empty Recycle Bin”, “Fax error”, “Fax sent”, “Feed Discovered”, “Incoming call”, “Information Bar”, “Move Menu Item”, “Search Provider Discovered”, “Start Navigation”.
Often you will also be able to customize sounds for special applications like iTunes or VNCviewer for example. So, there are quite a lot of sound files that you can change and customize.
If you are new to this, I would start with the most important sounds:
Asterisk, Critical Stop and Default Beep

Where can I download WAV sound files for my Windows 7 theme?

You can find, search and download sound files for Windows 7 here:
www.wavcentral.com/
www.ilovewavs.com/
www.moviewavs.com/

There are many sites out there, where you can download WAV files. You should also be looking for sound files that are SHORT, because it would be pretty annoying to hear a 12 minute long sound every time you receive an error message.

Create Windows 7 Themes

A lot of people ask me how to create Windows 7 themes. If you want to create some themes in Windows 7, you have to know that Microsoft made creating and sharing themes really simple, thanks to a new file format “.themepack”, which is basically a special ZIP format that includes cursors, sounds, wallpapers, icons, colors and more.
How to create Windows 7 Themes


First of all, to create Windows 7 themes open your “Personalize” Control Panel. To do that right-click on your desktop and click on “Personalize”:
On the following windows, you will be able to create, customize and share Windows 7 themes.
Create Windows 7 Themes & personalize
The highlighted items are the most important entries. You can change “Desktop Background”, “Windows Color”, “Sounds”, “Screensaver”, “Desktop Icons” and “Mouse Pointers”.

Create Windows XP Themes

  • 1
    Open and start Windows XP. There is no need to enter safe mode to create themes.
  • 2
    Click on the Start menu and select the "Control Panel" menu option.
  • 3
    Click on the "Appearance" link in the Control Panel window (if you are viewing the control panel in the default Windows XP view). If you would like to switch to the classic Windows Control Panel view, click the "Switch to Classic View" link.
  • 4
    Click the "Display" icon in the Control Panel. From here you will be able to control nearly every aspect of your Windows XP themes.
  • 5
    Click on the "Appearance" tab along the menu bar.
  • 6
    Experiment with different settings. Change fonts, colors and sizes. Tweak the way the menu buttons behave.
  • 7
    Click the "Desktop" tab to choose from the collection of wallpapers you have stored on your hard drive. You can choose to stretch, center or tile the wallpaper to make it appear the way you desire.
  • 8
    Change your screensaver to something that fits with the themes you are creating. Just choose from the list provided and change its parameters to see how it would look in different states.
  • 9
    Click back to the "Themes" tab, and then click "Save As..." in order to preserve the themes you create.
  • 10
    Delete a theme that you no longer wish to have by selecting the theme from the drop-down menu in the "Themes" tab and clicking "Delete." You will be asked to confirm your selection, at which point you may press "Yes" or "No" to complete the operation.

Add an image or logo to your Hotmail Email Signature

Slightly later than planned (sorry all you folks that have been waiting with baited breath) here it is, the Clarity guide to adding an image to your Hotmail signature.
Now you may want to design your whole signature as an image (like mine, pictured) or you may just want to add an image, perhaps your logo, on to some carefully chosen words.
After much hair-tearing-out and head-bashing-on-desk I have worked out how to do it, and now I am going to share the secret with you all!
Before we start, I am going to assume you have your Hotmail (or Windows Live Mail) account open on a webpage, and that you have the picture/image/logo you would like to include. In the right size- i.e. the size you would like it to appear at on the bottom of your emails.
The crucial first step is to realise that you cannot use an image saved on your computer. You need to upload the image on to the web somewhere. If you have your own website you can upload it there, add it to a post on your blog, or just use an online image repository like flickr.com. Open a webpage with your image on it. And off we go.

Step by Step
  • Click on your id in the top right hand corner of the Hotmail window, and select Options from the dropdown menu.
  • On the next screen click on Mail in the left hand menu
  • Click Personal e-mail signature under Writing email. This brings up a new screen with a blank ‘page’ for you to design your signature in. If you are doing a signature with some text in too, add your text now (it will be easier to position your image if the text is there first)
  • Click over to the web page containing the image or just load the image itself using its URL.
  • Highlight the image — just the image — with your mouse.
  • Press Ctrl-C (Windows, Linux) or Command-C (Mac).
  • Go back to Hotmail, position the cursor where you want to insert the image and press Ctrl-V (Windows, Linux) or Command-V (Mac).
  • If you have already inserted some text, you are now done, and can click Save. However, if you have a full image signature, you need to add some text in order for the Hotmail system to save it. I used a line of __________ , but you could use ******* or ——– or anything you like. If you do NOT add text, the image will not be saved in your signature.
  • Click Save.
  • Do a dance because you now have a pretty email signature in Hotmail. Simples.

Add or Change a Signature in Yahoo


  1. Click Options in the upper-right corner of your Mail page and select More Options.
  2. From the list on the left, click Signature.
  3. You can select Show a signature on all outgoing messages to enable the signature. Select Do not use a signature if you want to turn your signature off – or you can simply delete it manually from emails in which you’d rather not show it.
  4. On the far right of the message window, above the text area, click either Plain Text or Rich Text. Plain Text is just the letters. In Rich Text, you can work with color, font, size and style choices that you select from the toolbar.

    Note: For a Rich Text signature to appear in Rich Text, you must compose your email in Rich Text. Make that selection by clicking the Rich Text link in the Compose window, to the right of the Subject box.
  5. Next, add or change your signature by typing in the text area.
  6. At the top of the page, click Save Changes.
Your signature will now appear at the bottom of any message you compose.

This kind of virus opens numerous command prompt windows, which in turn hangs the user’s system (in other words, freezes the system). You can create this kind of virus to hang the user’s system, and then there is no option but to turn off the system. The user cannot do anything to stop the command prompt windows from opening!There is a flow of endless Command Prompt windows which cannot be stopped by any methods. Not even task manager will help. Untill the time you decide and see the task manager windows, you will already have a hundreds of command prompt windows!To understand the technique behind the endless flow of command prompt Windows, read the description below in full:We create 2 files- 1.bat, 2.bat. Both of them (as you know) open with command prompt. Now when we open 1.bat, 2.bat automatically opens because 1.bat calls 2.bat & 2.bat again call 1.bat. This process of calling (or opening) each other continues endlessly. We open 1.bat which opens 2.bat. Now 2.bat again opens 1.bat & 1.bat opens 2.bat again. This process continues endlessly.1.bat => 2.bat => 1.bat => 2.bat => 1.bat => 2.bat ……………………. The process continues

Out of which, endless command prompt windows virus works with all windows versions, whereas the other two viruses discussed may not work in windows vista and later version of windows because they have other commands for performing the task.In this section, I am going to teach you the art of creating an actual virus that may threaten a user and make him believe that his computer has been attacked by a real virus. In this section for creating the deadliest virus, we are going to integrate all of the above mentioned viruses into one single batch file.In this final virus, we will not only integrate the previously mentioned commands, but also add some more commands and functionality to make it look like a real threatening virus!!! Ok let’s get started…

Disable Restart Prompt

Introduction
It is irritating when your mom tells you to turn off your computer when you are doing some important work or playing a game.
The restart prompt is just like that “mom”. It's frustrating when you get a prompt to restart your computer when you do not want to.
Why is it so & how does it happen?
When you are connected to the Internet, the important updates are automatically downloaded. After the completion of the windows update, you get a message to restart your PC.
Now this is the most irritating part. Imagine that you are browsing something that is very important to you & do not want to restart or get an advanced tension of restarting it later. I admit that you can click the button restart later, but what if you could permanently remove this nagging screen?
Voilla!!! You can remove this nag screen. You can disable restart prompt. Thanks to the registry editor!

How to do it
1.Click run located on the start menu.
2.Now type “regedit” and click OK.
3.Now you will encounter a registry editor screen.
4.In the registry editor screen, navigate to- HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies > Microsoft\Windows
5.On the right pane, right click & select New => Key
6.Now a Folder is created.
7.Right click the folder created on the left pane & select New => Key
8.Now you will see a sub-folder. Rename this sub-folder to AU (AutoUpdate)
9.Now return to the right pane & select New => DWORD Value.
10.Now right click on the new DWORD Value created & change the name to- NoAutoRebootWithLoggedOnUsers & the value to 1 (value 0 means false & 1 means true).

Results
Now you are completed with the operation of preventing windows from showing that irritating, frustrating restart dialogue box. Now you may restart the windows to see the changes. From now, you wont be asked to restart windows after updating you system
A single restart for preventing the lifetime automatic restart. Seems like a profitable deal isn’t it?
