Hiding Code
 

Is there any way to hide the "view code" option? I have a macro that
protects my worksheet with a password which I'd like to keep secret.

Thanks!

Jae

Jae, you can protect the VBA project,

To protect the VBA project, from your workbook right-click the workbook's
icon and pick View Code. This icon is to the left of the "File" menu this
will open the VBA editor, in the left hand window right click on your
workbook name and select VBA project properties, protection, check lock
project for viewing and set a password. Press Alt and Q to close this window
and go back to your workbook and save and close the file. Be aware that this
password can be broken by third party software
