How password protection of Excel VBA code works?

VBA security is widely considered to be pretty poor. The VBA code isn't compiled, and the source is available in the excel file. The password protection is pretty easy to circumvent.

Phil is correct - the password prevent you from looking at the modules, they are not encrypted themselves. I know in excel 2007 a file is essentially a zipped collection of XML and other files, but I don't know the details of how encryption is handled. For earlier versions - excel 2, 3, 4, 5, 95, 97, 2000, XP, & 2003, there is the comprehensive OpenOffice.org's Documentation of the Microsoft Excel File Format.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
