Hi.
I need to know what possibilities are there for protecting and restricting other users using, viewing or copying my macros & accompanying workbooks.
There is a delicate situation at work, in that, some people are using and tweaking my macros and calling it their own, then making claims for payrises based on 'their' work. This is upsetting. From now on, I want to totally protect every macro I write by not making it viewable or usable by others without a password. Then I can claim it as my work.
Of course one way would be to put my macros on a floppy disk and bring it with me everyday....
Also, what tends to happen is that some people ask me to write them a macro to be used as part of their project. Lately the bastards have been claiming they did the whole project, even though without my macro it would not be a project. So if I send someone a macro, is there anyway to document explicitly who created it?
Any suggestions? This is a sad situation to have to be in really...
