protect VB-code

[mohavv]

Hi,

Is there a way to protect a Module or a Form with a password
separately so that the code isn't visible?

Or is the only way to protect it by using the password option in the
project properties?

Cheers,

Harold

You cannot protect individual VB Components. You can password protect the
entire project or nothing at all. Note that the password protection provided
by the VBA editor is very weak. It should be considered to protect the
honest user from honest mistakes. It is not strong enough to protect
proprietary code or code with intellectual property value. For that level of
protection, you should be writing your code in VB6 or NET.
