running an password protected application
Hi Susan,
on the winzip-website you can find a command line tool, check if you can pass the password as a parameter with that tool. arno "susan" schrieb im Newsbeitrag ... I have a question. In order to use a macro, a certain exe file has to be unzipped. The zipped file is password proctected. When my user receives the file (via email), he detaches it and double-clicks on it. (When you double-click it automatically prompts you for the password. And if the password is correct - it unzips the file). Now my user only wants to detach the file. He wants the macro to do the rest. I figured out how to run the exe using the "shell" command but now: a) I can't figure out how to automatically put in the password and b) how to get the rest of the program to wait until the exe finishes. Thanks for your help. |
