To protect your VB code from being seen by others, all you need to do
is go to the project explorer, point at your project and right click
on it. Select VBA project properties, click on the protection tab and
check the Lock project for viewing and key your password. That's it.

Please be aware that excel passwords are fairly easy to defeat.

I've seen how to do it for Worksheet and maybe workbook passwords, but not VB
passwords. How is that done?

You pretty much need a hex editor or a commercial application for VBA
passwords Barb.
