Hi
you can password protect the vba project (ie the macros), press ALT & F11 to switch to the VBE editor, find your workbook's name in the Project Explorer (view / project explorer) right mouse click on it choose VBAProject Properties Go to the protection tab tick the check box and put a password in. -- Cheers JulieD check out www.hcts.net.au/tipsandtricks.htm ....well i'm working on it anyway wrote in message ... How can I keep a user from accessing macros in a spreadsheet. I have some of the macros run when needed via VBA, and I have other macros that I use for such things as protecting or unprotecting all or selected sheets as needed. But I don't want the other users to be able to manually access the macros. Thanks for any help. |

Just be aware that Excel's protection is not invincible. There are commercial
password breakers as well as free methods (ie hex editor) available to break VBA project passwords. A persistent individual with access to the internet could view your code if they really wanted to.
