Macro to Hide column and another to unhide (WITH PASSWORD)

[SelinaR]

Afternoon boffins...

I have recorded a macro to hide and unhide a column, however I need to supercharge it...

MACRO:
On Sheet 2, to hide & another to unhide Column "U"
1. Hide column U
2. Unhide column U with a password... (hiding column & protecting the sheet wasn't a viable option)
I would also prefer a keyboard shortcut ctrl+h (hide) and ctrl+s (show) rather than a button (if possible)

I have tired a few examples on the site, but get run time errors and issues.

thanks in advance....

unless the sheet is protected any column could be unhidden. You don't have to lock every cell if you need some cells to allow edit while it is protected.
