ACC2000: Can't Import Modules from Protected VBA Project
This article was previously published under Q205085
Moderate: Requires basic macro, coding, and interoperability skills.
This article applies to a Microsoft Access database (.mdb) and to a Microsoft Access project (.adp).
If you export a module to or import a module from another Microsoft Access database or project, or if you drag a module from one instance of the Visual Basic Editor to another instance of the Editor, you may receive the following error message:
This VBA project has been protected with a password. You must supply the password in the Visual Basic Environment before you can perform this operation.
There is no way to supply the password to the protected project.
In order to complete the operation successfully, open the database or project that contains the protected Visual Basic for Applications project and export the module to the target database or project. If both the target and source databases are under Visual Basic for Applications password protection, remove the password from the Visual Basic for Applications project that you are importing from or exporting to.
For more information about password protecting Visual Basic for Applications projects, click
Microsoft Access Help on the
Help menu, type
protect VBE in the Office Assistant or
the Answer Wizard, and then click
Search to view the topics

Community Feedback System
Very often, it takes hours to solve a problem. Very often, you've looked high
and low, and have tried a lot of solutions. When you finally found it, chances
are, it was because someone else helped you. Here's your chance to give back.
Use our community feedback tool to let others know what worked for you and what
didn't.
Please also understand that the community feedback system is not warranted to be
correct, it's simply a system that we've built to let people try and help each
other. If something in a feedback response doesn't make sense to you, or you're
not comfortable making changes that the feedback talks about (like registry
edits), please consult a professional.
