Description Markus Mohrhard 2015-08-17 17:29:36 UTC 
Currently the VBA export is developed in the feature/vba-export branch. However the current export is quite limited and we only support normal code modules and the basic VBA structure.

This task would be about implementing the password protection for the VBA export. The related part in the VBA specification (https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/office/cc313094%28v=office.12%29.aspx) is section 2.4.3.

The current export code is in oox/source/ole/vbaexport.cxx
