I write complicated macros for my engineering company. They do the job and I'd like to protect them properly.

As I understand, the VBA password protection is full of holes and there are loads of password recovery software out there that can hack through it.

What are the ways in which I can protect my code from hacking?

I also have found this software:

I don't know if its any good because there don't seem to be any reviews available. Should I purchase a license?

I would be very grateful for any help. I would be really distressed if my code were to somehow escape this office and enter into a competitor's hands!

Thanks in advance!

If you are sending it outside the company strip the script out. If they've got two grey celss in close proximity they aren't running it anyway....
