Hi everyone,
Ok, so I'm a little cheezed that I've been volun-told to give up an economic model that took me over 8 months to develop to a few investment bankers that will likely sell it to the highest bidder. Of course, with no credit to me.
I've already taken a few of the necessary steps to lock it down.
Examples:
- Lock/hidden cells along with sheet protection (with password) - to prevent viewers from seeing the formulas I used.
- protect workbook (with password) - to prevent copy/paste of the sheets
- VBA - Tools - VBA Project Properties - Protection - Set password - to prevent viewing of the macros
- Hiding sheets using "Very Hidden" in VBA - to prevent viewing of sheets in general.
I guess my real question is, when this is all said and done, how easy is it for someone to break through all the passwords that I've set up in the workbook? If it's ridiculously easy, how do I prevent it (if at all)? What else can I do?
Thanks for the input.
Paula
