Hello everyone
I have made a macro which opens a file with a password (this is to
update it) then saves it and then closes, unfortunately I can not get
it to open without asking me for a password. I have already tried lots
of differant things but nothing works. Below I have pasted a copy of
the macro and just hope that some one can help me.

Sub Auto_Open()
' Auto_Open Macro
' Macro recorded 4/03/2006 by Paul Maynard
Workbooks.Open Filename:= _
"E:\Documents and Settings\anna\Desktop\Paul\Work\111.xls"
ActiveWorkbook.Save
ActiveWorkbook.Close
End Sub


Thanks in advance
