Need To Protect "Tab code"
I have code within a tab, for example a "Private Sub
Worksheet_SelectionChange...". I was suprised that although I PROTECT the worksheet with a password, the code within the tab is still accessible and be modified. How can this too be protected from anyone updating it? |

You can protect all the code (the entire workbook's project, actually), by:
Opening your workbook Open the VBE (alt-f11 is a quick way to get there) Show the project explorer (ctrl-r) Select your project Tools|VBAProject Properties|Protection tab Give it a nice (memorable!) password. Back to excel Save, close, and reopen the workbook to test. Be aware that like most passwords everywhere, there are ways of cracking it.
