Hi Superfly07,<br />
<br />
By &quot;bypass password protection&quot; do you mean you want to automatically enter the (known) file password? If so then do you want Java or Javascript (sorry, can't tell which zone this is posted in since it looks like Excel to me).<br />
<br />
If you want to actually ignore password protection on a file, I'm pretty sure you won't be able to achieve that.<br />

Hi Superfly07,

I have the password given by clients. I need to create a Java class with known passwords to automate this process.

Ahh apologies. A problem with the multiple topic area cross-posting - I know nothing of Java ;)<br />

Good luck,<br />

Java gurus out there. I need to write a Java class to bypass password protection for excel files. We can write a VB script but I need it in Java. We can also disable that feature but we want to automate this process.

Java

Java is a platform-independent, object-oriented programming language and run-time environment, designed to have as few implementation dependencies as possible such that developers can write one set of code across all platforms using libraries. Most devices will not run Java natively, and require a run-time component to be installed in order to execute a Java program.

Microsoft Excel topics include formulas, formatting, VBA macros and user-defined functions, and everything else related to the spreadsheet user interface, including error messages.
