QUESTION:
Is there any "uncrackable" method where I can hide my cell functions and the password cannot be cracked by any method that is easily available to the "man on the street" who is searching the internet for ways to crack into a password-protected Excel workbook/worksheet? My meaning is that I'm OK with a method that can be cracked by say some experts at the FBI or CIA, but I at least want something at minimum is impenetrable by the vast majority of Excel users and Excel programmers.

Oh, I had better mention that of course I want to allow the user to be able to interact with the cells in the spreadsheet that are unlocked.

Can a formula spear through sheets?
Use =SUM(January:December!E7) to sum E7 on all of the sheets from January through December
Hi & welcome to MrExcel.
If you need that level of security then do not use Excel, pure & simple.
