If this a Word question, you're in the wrong group, but....
If you think about it, being able to check the existing password would be a
pretty stupid capability, as then the password would be useless.
What you can do is use the password(s) you have and trap the error if the
opening fails.

Can I make a sub-routine to check the Password required to Open the Word
Document?
Actually I want that the password to open a particular document changes
(every time it is openend). The password should be from an already
supplied
list (minimum three passwords).
I know to supply the password using VB but dont know how to check the
existing password, so that I can use 'IF' to change the Password.

Please help!
