Check the value of Password
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! |

Check the value of Password
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. NickHK "Amit" wrote in message ...

Again, this is an Excel group, not Word, but....
You say "I know to supply the password using VB", so what is the problem then ? NickHK "Amit" wrote in message ... See Nick U didnt get the point. Its not only about word. its about using VB!

So MR. EXCEL!!!!!!!!
Get it this way- "I want to change the Password of a workbook I created every time it is closed. And that password should be from a specified list and should follow a certain pattern" OK then, I hope that Mr. Excel will sort out the problem. If you are not able to solve the problem then I suggest you to be careful and understand the nature of the problem before making any comment. Other thing is that I use a variety of Softwares varying from Analysis to Excel and Drafitng to Word. And I know each software has its own applications and standing!!!!!!
