Yes
Something like this may help;
Private Sub Workbook_BeforePrint(Cancel As Boolean)
Dim Pwd As String
If ActiveSheet.Name = "Sheet1" Then
Pwd = InputBox("Enter password before printing", "Password Required")
If Pwd <> "test" Then
Range("A1:G200") = "Trial"
Cancel = True
Else
Range("A1:G200") = ""
End If
End If
End Sub

Thanks Ivan..but i think this method is not relevant..coz if the
user supplied the wrong password, all the data and
the formula will be deleted..so i have come with
1 solution..how to make user to key in a password
in order to print or to save the workbook..if the password
is wrong...the workbook wil close automatically and all
works will be not saved..thanks
