Hiding an Excel worksheet with VBA

To hide from the UI, use Format > Sheet > Hide

To hide programatically, use the Visible property of the Worksheet object. If you do it programatically, you can set the sheet as “very hidden”, which means it cannot be unhidden through the UI.

ActiveWorkbook.Sheets("Name").Visible = xlSheetVeryHidden 
' or xlSheetHidden or xlSheetVisible

You can also set the Visible property through the properties pane for the worksheet in the VBA IDE (ALT+F11).
