Thanks Frank,
I still need the answer though.
The app and code are mine and users agree that it's better for them to
have
dead application rather than one that lies about tax rebate rates - stuff
is
serious!
They can disable that code, you say - that's why I prefer app to castrate
itself. They can still use backup and reimport missing module but in this
case my butt is safe.
So question is still open

Hi Paul
I wouldn't recommend this.
First: Easy to circumvent by an experienced user by disabling this code
part
Second: Not sure if you're allowed to do 'deleting' code and the
possible
legal consequences.

Bottom line: In Excel there's no real way to protect/secure your code

Hi,
I need to ensure that users keep updating software in VBA. So I need to
warn
them, say 1 month in advance and past that, I need to disable their
access
to crucial module.
I thought of removing that module. How do I do that programmatically?
TIA
Paul
