By trying to create a macro for doing a save as function I
inadvertently discovered a way to reveal some password.
Here is the macro I fist used:
Sub SaveQuote()
'
' SaveQuote Macro
' Macro recorded 11/10/2005 by MILLER
'
'
ActiveWorkbook.SaveAs Filename:= _
"C:\Documents and Settings\sales\Desktop\POW" & Start!F14 &
".xls", FileFormat:=xlNormal, _
Password:=" ", WriteResPassword:="", ReadOnlyRecommended:= _
False, CreateBackup:=False
End Sub
I then filled in the values I needed for my quote and ran the macro. I
was given an error message that said I needed an object so I hit debug
and excel showed me this:
Sub SaveQuote()
'
' SaveQuote Macro
' Macro recorded 11/10/2005 by MILLER AUTO CENTER
'
'
ActiveWorkbook.SaveAs Filename:= _
"C:\Documents and Settings\sales\Desktop\POW" & Start!F14 &
".xls", FileFormat:=xlNormal, _
Password:="VelvetSweatshop", WriteResPassword:="",
ReadOnlyRecommended:= _
False, CreateBackup:=False
End Sub
Revealing a password. I tried to unlock the sheet that was protected
and it was not password protected. I next tried to unlock the workbook
and that password didn't work so what did I discover?
Thank You,
