You really can't ultimately. You can stop sheet copying with Tools,
Protection, Protect Workbook, except that the password can be broken easily.
And you can stop copying cells with a macro, but if the user disables
macros, then that doesn't work.

A VB project can be projected with a password and that's harder to break.
If the user doesn't know how to break it he can't separate the code from the
VB project.
