    Password Protecting an Attachment sent via VBA

    I have the following code (kindly by Ron de Bruin) which extracts an excel
    attactment for e-mail. My problem is that I wish to password protect all
    sheets in the attachment and not sure how to do i. I do notice a statement
    within the code of " .ChangeFileAccess xlReadOnly" which I would have
    thought would have made the attachment read-only, but thats not the case.

    Any help I would be grateful



    Sub Mail_Reports()
    Dim wb As Workbook
    Dim strdate As String
    Dim MyArr As Variant
    On Error Resume Next
    strdate = Format(Now, "dd-mm-yy h-mm")
    Application.ScreenUpdating = False
    Sheets("E-Schedule").Visible = True
    Sheets("E-Sales Hours").Visible = True
    Sheets("E-Import").Visible = True
    Sheets(Array("E-Schedule", "E-Sales Hours", "E-Import")).Copy
    Set wb = ActiveWorkbook
    With wb
    .SaveAs ThisWorkbook.Name _
    & " Sent on" & " " & strdate & ".xls"
    MyArr = Sheets("E-Schedule").Range("AG1:AG3")
    .SendMail MyArr, Sheets("E-Schedule").Range("AG4").Value
    .ChangeFileAccess xlReadOnly
    Kill .FullName
    .Close False
    End With
    Application.ScreenUpdating = True
    Sheets(Array("E-Schedule")).Select
    ActiveWindow.SelectedSheets.Visible = False
    Sheets(Array("E-Sales Hours")).Select
    ActiveWindow.SelectedSheets.Visible = False
    Sheets(Array("E-Import")).Select
    ActiveWindow.SelectedSheets.Visible = False

    Sheets("Home").Select
    Range("A1").Select
    On Error GoTo 0
    End Sub

    John,

    Try something like:

    Dim AnySheet As Worksheet

    For Each AnySheet In ActiveWorkbook.Worksheets
    ActiveWorkbook.Worksheets(AnySheet.Name) _
    .Protect Password:="mypassword"
    Next


    HTH
