Default How to hide a column

Hello,

I want to send out an excel file to some people, but I dont want them to see
the column c. I know how to hide a column, That is not what I need, I need
to have this column not accessible at all by the people who will receive this
file.

Is this possible?


Thank you Pascale

Hide by code using xlVERYHIDDEN. Then it can only be unhidden by code.
Protect the code

If it is imperative that the recipients do not see the data in column C do not
include column C when you send the workbook.

No matter what you do to hide and protect the column. it can be unhidden by
someone determined to get a look.
