macro encryption

[Michael Weiner]

When putting together forms for use by more than one person is there a way to encrypt the macros so that they cannot be tampered with?

Thanks

I believe there is a way to password protect specific modules.

When putting together forms for use by more than one person is there a way to

encrypt the macros so that they cannot be tampered with?In the VB Editor's Tools menu you'll find "Options". One of the tabs in this
dialog box is for setting password protection. This isn't 100% secure, although
it will foil any "casual" user, just not someone determined to break in and
willing to spend a lot of time and effort.

For the highest security, you'd have to create a DLL addin in VB or .NET.
