I have 2 Worksheets within a excel doc,
I have sensitive data in the 2nd worksheet,
I want to hide it (Which i can do),
But want to stop users from unhiding it,
Is there anyway to do this without moving the 2nd worksheet
to a seperate excel file??
Cheers
Chris
 
Hi Chris!

Hide the sheet
Tools > Protection > Protect Workbook
Give and confirm a password

You'll see now that the Format > Sheet menu has hide and unhide grayed
out.

But be aware that this is not a very secure form of protection and
that the passwords are very easily broken by those who do a Google
search and find the code and workbooks that are available.
