A password breaking macro does not use the menus, so even if you could get
what you described, it wouldn't interfere with a macro.

Another problem with the whole concept of using a macro to stop a user is
that there is no way to make a macro run. A user can always disable macros.

| Hi All...........

| Would it be possible to have a Macro that would, upon opening a workbook,

| but when they particularly do the sequence Tools Protection and
either
| "Unprotect sheet" or "Unprotect workbook" the macro would come alive and

had

| prevent a "password busting" programs from working.
|
| Any help would be much appreciated.
