Password protected VBA code

[Mike]

I have protected my VBA code with a password. Is it any
risk that someone can find out the password by opening
the mpp file by another program or similar?

Thanks in advance,
Mike

Mike,

I assume you set the password through Tools -> VBAProject -
Project Properties -> Protection? I'm 90% sure that it
is possible for other people to find out the password and
get into the code if they really want to. There are
numerous "lost password recovery" utilities for the
various office programs floating around the WWW.

If you want to make sure your code is secure, I think the
best way is to make it a COM add-in.
