xlSheetVeryhidden - still option to copy if you know the name of the sheet!
Hi,
I am using xlSheetVeryHidden to hide sheets with sensitive data fro user. But if the user knows the name of the sheet, he can simply acces the data by referencing to the hidden sheet, e.g =hiddenSheet!A1 Does anybody know a way to prevent this -- Message posted from http://www.ExcelForum.com |

Sensitive data in an Excel file are simply not safe. Remove them from the
file or assume that a skillful person can get to them. (Most companies does usually not have more than 2-3 skillfull persons though :-) -- HTH.
