Using Protected Functions in a Class Module

[Rawb]

Can you use the Protected attribute when programming in VBA? Every search I can think of returns a result for Visual Basic, not VBA. And, when I try using it, I get an error.



This is contained in a Class Module defining a custom Object:

Protected Sub Set_LastUpdated(Value As Date)
  tLastUpdated = Value
End Sub

The Word "Sub" is hilighted and I get the compile error "Expected: expression"

What I'm trying to do is spelled out in more detail in this thread.

There is no Protected keyword in VBA.
