Jerry, Two ways, if adopted can help protect the sheet the way you want to:
1) Code should be used to hide, Renaming sheet option on the worksheet menu bar i.e. going to Format ---> Sheets-----> Rename 2) On worksheet_deactivate event can be used to rename the sheet back to the same name it was before renaming it The first code can exist in the Auto_open event, while a similar code to reverse the step performed in step 1 should be included in the workbookclose event I am not very strong with the coding of the commandbars, but i beleive members will post something with respect to this idea.... I hope this will help, these are some of the solutions i thought of while working on your problem, i hope they work good Harry On Jun 5, 8:30 am, Jerry <centau...@live.co.uk> wrote: > The subject says it all.
