You can make them veryhidden through VBA and user will not be able to unhide
them by going to FormatSheetUnhide.

Sheets("Sheet1").Visible = xlVeryHidden

But user may figure out a way to unhide them

Sheets("Sheet1").Visible = True

Excel's internal security is very weak and difficult to lock down everything
completely.

My suggestion is...............if you don't want someone to see something,
don't include it in the workbook.
