Windows 2004 Excel vba to Mac 2004 Excel VBA

I'm new to the mac and ported several of my excel worksheet from
Windows 2004 Excel to the Mac Excel 2004. When I tried to open the
VBA module, I can't. I get a message that the module is "Locked".
Help is no help...tells me to go to the tools menu Security where I
also am told it is "Locked". I can't figure out how to unlock it. I
assume there will be some modifications required to the module, but
can't even get it to open. What am I missing?

WinXL2002/3 (not 2004 - that's Mac-only) have additional security modes
that can prevent opening in MacXL. Unprotect them in XL03, then transfer
them again.

Thanks! Tried it and it worked...is there a good resource to find out
information like this--difference between Mac and Windows VBA? I saw
something but it had to do with the '95 versions. Anything re:
current versions of VBA, and differences?
