There are two different type of passwords. An Excel Password and a window
password. I think the password on your file is a window password. I you
have an excel password the macro will prompt for a passwrod if you don't have
one in the open statement. Try taking the passwrod out of the open statement
and see what happens

from
Set FileNameXls = Workbooks.Open( _
Filename:=FName, _
UpdateLinks:=0, _
Password:="topsecret", _
WriteResPassword:="topsecret")

to
Set FileNameXls = Workbooks.Open( _
Filename:=FName, _
UpdateLinks:=0)


If yo have a window password the password need to be handled differntly then
the code yo present have. If so you will need to go into window explorer and
select the file, then right click and select property to find out what
windows passwords are set in the file (provided you have thge permission to
see the protection).

The multiselect option is true on the filedialog box so you can select
multiple files. Is ther a different password for differnt files. It isn't
clear from your last posting.

Thanks Joel for your suggestion, there is no more debugging, but the error
message said " Can not open the file - Existing Macro" then I click OK,
nothing happeed.

Moreover, can we make it to open several files?, because we want to use the
good thing on Getopen file.

I do not know why for the non password files, it works perfectly and can
open many files and then create the worksheet.

Thanks for your more explanation.

You had a typeo in the line

Set FileNameXls = Workbooks.Open( _
Filename:=PathStr & FileNameXls, _
UpdateLinks:=0, _
Password:="topsecret", _
WriteResPassword:="topsecret")


The format of methods like workbook open has two formats. One without the
equal sign where you don't use parenthesis and one where you have an equal
sign an use parenthesis. You have the equal sign above. Here is theh method
without the equal sign


Workbooks.Open _
Filename:=PathStr & FileNameXls, _
UpdateLinks:=0, _
Password:="topsecret", _
WriteResPassword:="topsecret"

The book you open become the active wrokbook so you can add this line now

Set FileNameXls = Activeworkbook


I prefer using the equal sign the way you did. The problem with your
orignal code is you added options after the parenthesis that should of been
inside the parenthesis and yo had an extra closing parenthesis.

below, I tried to write it but it can not work. Could you please edit it?

Thanks

The GETOPENFILENAME uses the same function as a window explorer and if the
user doesn't have permissions to get into a folder in the window explorer
then GETOPENFILENAME will not get into the folder. Also if the user can't
open a file in window explorer (even with a password) then they won't be able
to open the file with WORKBOOKS.OPEN. Your code should work the way it is.
You have the pasword included in the WORKBOOKS.OPEN statment. Don't try to
bypas the security features in windows. It won't work.

Hello,

Below VBA works perfectly for non passwords. How can we incorporate
Getopenfile with opening the protoecting workbooks ( all workbooks have the
same password.

The following VBA is debugging at:
'Set FileNameXls = Workbooks.Open(PathStr & FileNameXls),_
'Password:="topsecret", WriteResPassword:="topsecret", UpdateLinks:=0)

This is my whole VBA that I learned from the website of Mr. Ron De Bruin:
Sub Rectangle2_Click()
Dim FileNameXls As Variant
Dim SummWks As Worksheet
Dim ColNum As Integer
Dim myCell As Range, Rng As Range
Dim RwNum As Long, FNum As Long, FinalSlash As Long
Dim ShName As String, PathStr As String
Dim SheetCheck As String, JustFileName As String
Dim JustFolder As String

ShName = "SUMMARY" '<---- Change
Set Rng =
Range("C7,C8,E7,D114,H4,D59,E59,D66,F66,D73,F73,D9 5,F95,D103,D104") '<----
