I was wondering if there are any additional security tips beyond password protection for VBA modules since VBA passwords are pretty easy to crack?

What others things have folks tried?

Hi,
Very competent Excel users can unpick Excel security in a very short order of time.
Never used one myself but if you are looking for something that offers more robust protection for your project then look at Excel Compilers like this one:DoneEx, Home of Excel Compiler

– may just offer what you are looking for.

Others here may have further suggestions
