Default data only visible by using a password

No need to crack the password, you could simply have another workbook refer

You could hide the column then protect the worksheet with a password.

Excel security is rather weak so this method will prevent casual users
cracking your password.

Hi,

Is it possible in Excel (preferably not by using macro's or VBA) to make the
data in one column unvisable unless a password is entered?

marieke
