Take a look at www.cpearson.com/excel/vbe.htm. This page shows you how to
dynamically add code.

And uninstall any virus scanners like McAfee. They are very efficient
at wiping your entire code module if you dare to use the methods
described in the quoted link.
I learned that the hard way.

If that is true, and I must admit I have never experienced it with AVG, then
I would suggest that a different approach is taken. Uninstalling virus
scanners is a bit too drastic for me.

I partly agree with Amedee.

You have to TEST that McAfee will not see your legitimate code
as a virus. McAfee has a routine for 1 of the first macro virii
that aggressively wipes any code from ThisWorkbook that modifies
the VBproject.

But you CAN prevent being seen as a virus..
takes careful testing and the procedure to modify the VBproject must be
moved from ThisWorkbook module to a normal module.

Keep,

Been there, done that, and you know it from following
news:microsoft.public.nl.office.excel.

My code was in a normal module, and it was just called from an event
handler in ThisWorkbook. The normal module was still wiped.

Perhaps it also depends on the specific McAfee product. The "desktop"
product for end-users might work different compared to the "network"
product for companies.
