Password
Jeff
There are several types of protection. 1. Password to open the file. Can be set at FileSave AsToolsGeneral Options. 2. Password on a protected worksheet. This is set at ToolsProtectionProtect Sheet. Many functions can be disabled using this type of protection. 3. Workbook Protection password. This is set at ToolsProtectionProtect Workbook. This protects the workbook from having sheets deleted and other functions disabled. 4. VBA Project password to prevent viewers from looking at code modules. NOTE: except for File to Open protection and VBA project passwords, most forms of Excel protection are very weak and passwords can be easily cracked.
