I have a hidden sheet that is being used as a sample. IT SHOULD ALWAYS stay hidden, is there a way to KEEP IT HIDDEN so users can not unhide it ? If they unhide my VBA codes my not work.

I do not want to use protect sheet option since it closes everything . I only need to keep it hidden all the time and no one can unhide it to protect it from the excel gets messed up


Please someone help me i am new to VBA

Thanks
 

Excel Facts

When they said...
When they said you are going to "Excel at life", they meant you "will be doing Excel your whole life".
use

Worksheets("Sheet1").Visible = xlVeryHidden then put a password on your VBA

ALT + F11 then Tools --> VBAProject properties --> Protection


This can be cracked if someones wants but its good for passive users

So on your last post which i assume this is for, replace the instances of

Sheets(Sheets.Count).Visible = xlHidden

with

Sheets(Sheets.Count).Visible = xlveryHidden
