Is there a way of creating a "license code" for a workbook
I've created with some pretty intensive macro and cell programming? I'd like to include the workbook with some AutoCAD tools I've created and sell the whole package for a small fee. I made a license chacking function for the AutoCAD tools, but would like to "protect" the workbook, too. TIA Rich |

The bottom line is that any protection you put on your workbook will
be ineffective at keeping a moderately clever user out of your workbook, worksheets and code. You'd do better to compile your code into a COM add-in. Even in workbooks with file passwords, a hex editor can expose your VBA code. It's tokenized, so it's not directly human readable, but it's usually not too hard to reconstruct.
