Default Securing Macros/VBA Code

How do I "lock" Excel macros/vba code? I have a protected
workbook template in Excel 2000 but the use can still edit
my macros and vba code. Can this be locked?

Thanks

Cindy

Default Securing Macros/VBA Code

Cindy,

In the VBA Editor, go to the Tools menu, choose VBA Project
Properties, then the Protection tab. There, check the "Lock
Project For Viewing" checkbox and enter a password.

Note that the password isn't terribly secure. There are a
variety of methods that can break passwords.
