What is that password?
I launch Excel 2003 then select tools/macro/visual basic editor.
In the subsequent window, I click on "ThisWorkbook". In the properties window, both the Password and WritePassword fields are NOT empty. Is the default workbook password-protected? Why? What is the password? |

What is that password?
There is no default password.
But you can protect the workbook by typing in these fields in the properties window. I'd still use File|saveas|tools|General Options| tools|VBAProject properties|Protection tab (It seems reasonable to have to verify a password to me.) I think that as a security measure, that all passwords (now-a-days) are displayed as asterisks. Just to keep the eyes of people passing by from seeing too much.
