How to protect/unprotect a VBA Project using macro

I want to protect/unprotect a VBA Project using macro.
I searched Help information but I found only a
property showing whether the VBA Project is protected.

If you know how to do that, please send me an email.

If you have the password then this can be done
using sendkeys.....I answered one some time ago

Repost if you can't find it.

Sorry I should state my goal in much detail.

What I am writing is a macro with one module and one form to install another macro (includes a number of macro modules and forms in the same workbook) and button on other computer. I want to remove that installer macro after it complete all necessary actions. As I need to protect the contents of both macro, I have to password protect the project and I don't want to use export method which generate temperary easily readable file. But, with password protection, I cannot remove module/form. I want to know how to use macro to unprotect and protect the project which can hardly be noticed by user, just like adding/removing vba components can be done without any message or ontop window showing all details. If you have the password then this can be done Ivan : : I want to protect/unprotect a VBA Project using macro. : I searched Help information but I found only a : property showing whether the VBA Project is protected. : If you know how to do that, please send me an email. : hy_woo@johnsonmotor.com : Thanks.
