Opening password protected presentation with vba/vb

G

Guest

Hi,
I want to write a service, which opens and prints presentations without user
interaction. Is there any possibility to open a password protected
presentation using vba? In word or excel I'm able to send the password as
parameter of the open-method, but PowerPoint2003 doesn't seem to support such
a parameter. Is this correct and if so is there any alternative? Even a
possibilty to get a runtime error when trying to open a protected
presentation without displaying a modal dialog window?
Thanks and best regards,
Christian

Hi Christian,
Sorry but there is native way to open a password protected presentation nor
is there a way to throw an error instead of popping up a dialog.
You can search google groups for a workaround using a timer.
