I probably do or should know this, as Ive been programming for years. But
the minds a blank and needs to be kick started again.

Programs abound everywhere to unprotect code or to find passwords.

How then can I protect my Excel VBA code? Can I compile it?
VB seems OK but then do I get a single, simple executible?
Or am I forced ro reprogram in C++ or even Delphi (that can produce very
tight stand-alone executibles)?

I apologise if the answer is obvious.
Thanks
