Check if Word doc is protected, help required please...

[Tecnik]

Hi there,

I have quite a few Word docs to process so I've put together a macro to help.
It works fine until it hits a protected document.

Please can someone tell me how I check if the open document is protected?
There isn't a password specified, the files are protected for form filling.

Thank you.

Regards,

Nick

You can use ActiveDocument.ProtectionType, e.g. 'If ActiveDocument.ProtectionType = wdNoProtection Then'.

Thanks for the reply and for the snippet.
Have implemented it and it does exactly what is says on the tin. :)

Thank you once again.
