VBA Password query after App has ended.

I have created an Excel spread sheet with numerous sheets and numerous VBA forms and code.
I keep the VBA Project locked from viewing with a password.
I have been making slight improvements as you do, and my program is working fine.

Recently, on the odd occasion, after I have closed my Excel application, and after a few seconds, the VBA Project password dialog box appears on the desktop. It won't go with 'Cancel', I have to remove it via the task manager, or enter my password and then it disappears.

Has anyone experienced this, or knows what is causing it?
(It is NOT a consistant event)
[Windows XP Pro Sp2, Office XP Pro]
Thanks for any information.

On another note,
I would really like to thank all you guru's out there who help dummies like me.
The funny thing is, the more code I read from this site, the more I realise how little I know.
 
Firery,

See my response in thread707-1036824, which includes a link to further discussion of the problem. Sounds like your issue.

Likewise!

Thanks rmikesmith
Your thread mainly describe my problem being caused by having GOOGLE Search installed.
I don't have it installed, so it must be something else.
I have had a good look at my Before_Close but can't identify anything there.

So I'm still looking
 
I've searched the Microsoft excel.programming newsgroup and there are a number of postings with your same problem, also without Google Desktop Search installed. Unfortunately, no resolution. I suggest running your application on a different pc, if possible, to determine if the problem stems from a particular system configuration. The newsgroup replies also mention disabling any COM add-ins (Google Search being one) to see if that eliminates the problem.

Regards,
Mike
 
The problem has appeared on another PC running NT, without GOOGLE search.
The strange thing is that it is not consistant.
