Default Axcessing worksheets in an add-in

In the VBE set the "IsAddin" property of the xla to False: that will expose
the worksheets and allow you to edit them. Set back to True when done.

Back in May I got some help here in separating my VBA code from the .xls
file to be exposed to the user.
It works fine now. When the user opens the .xls file the .xla gets loaded
and the subroutine that installs
a command menu runs.

The question now is how do I maintain some things that are in worksheets
that I chose to leave in
the .xls file? Let me be more specific. I have certain parameters in a
worksheet in the .xla file. These things
are read and used in the macros. I had hoped to have easy access to them
just by clicking on the worksheet
object in the VBA Project tree for the xla file, then changing cells in
the normal Excel manner.

The problem is the VBA editor will only allow be to view and work with the
code, not the object.
I imagine I could edit what's in this worksheet via code, but that seems
awkward.

Is there any way around this?

TIA
