Use the password protect and using the max password you can key in. Use a
mixiture of Alpha upper and lower with numbers and then at the 8th, 16th and
32th position insert a return value "chr(13)". It will confuse those
password programs. Note once you enter the password like this you can not
undo so make sure you have a copy of your program.

Having worked long and hard on some Excel creations I wanted to secure
them so that my work can't easily be copied.....and I can maybe sell my
creations.
However, having inserted 32 digit passwords I have come across a free
program that you can download that will remove it in 1 minute 18
seconds!!!

Is there any true way to protect one's work?

Thanks for your help.

Regards,
