Thumbs up Answer: Better protection for VBA project?

Hi Ron,

I understand your concern about protecting your VBA project. There are a few steps you can take to make it more secure.
  1. Password protect your VBA project: You can password protect your VBA project by going to the VBA editor, clicking on "Tools" and then "VBAProject Properties". In the "Protection" tab, check the "Lock project for viewing" box and enter a password. This will prevent anyone from viewing or modifying your code without the password.
  2. Use a digital signatu You can sign your VBA project with a digital signature to ensure that it has not been tampered with. To do this, go to the VBA editor, click on "Tools" and then "Digital Signature". Follow the prompts to create and apply a digital signature to your project.
  3. Convert your VBA code to an add-in: You can convert your VBA code to an add-in, which is a separate file that can be loaded into Excel. This will prevent anyone from accessing your code directly. To do this, go to the VBA editor, click on "File" and then "Export File". Choose "Microsoft Excel Add-In" as the file type and save the file.
  4. Use third-party softwa There are third-party software programs available that can provide additional security for your VBA project. These programs can encrypt your code, add password protection, and more. Some popular options include VbaCompiler for Excel and XLS Padlock.

I hope these tips help you better protect your VBA project. Let me know if you have any questions or need further assistance.
