Hi

in the VBE Window, right mouse click on your project's name (the workbook
name) and choose VBAproject properties .. choose the protection tab, enter
the password in there to password protect it.

Cheers

In 2k (also in older versions but slightly diff path);
In the VBE;
"Tools-VBAProject-Properties" -Protection tab.

One small word of warning (from sad experience);
If you protect it in one version then try to open it in a prior version
it won't allow you to enter the password.
Also, it is not foolproof.
