Default Hiding Macro List - Using Shortcut Key

I'm trying to hide the macro list from users but I still want to be able to
use a shortcut key on a few macros. For instance, I have a macro with an
assigned short-cut that "Prepares the Workbook for Development" by unhiding
and unprotecting all sheets. Hitting the short cut key fires the Sub to
"Prepare for Development". Hitting the shortcut a second time "Prepare For
End-users" by hiding certain sheets and protecting certain sheets.

I don't want to assign this to a button (unless there is no other way.)

When I use a dummy argument on the Sub name as in
Sub SubName (Optional FakeArg As [type])
hitting the short-cut key pops up the macro list expecting me to pick the
appropriate macro.

Any ideas?

Thanks, Tom.

Is it true that if I use the Private statement, this sub cannot be called by
other subs?

Other subs in other modules, problem. Other subs in the same module, no
problem.
