Hi All,

I have another question.

I have some code to automatically enter a password (linked pw protected docs) in multiple times when using my update links macro. It works fine.

The issue I have is sometimes when I open the document it asks me to enable content which I then have to manually enter the password in multiple times.

Is there a way to automatically enable content and enter password when opening the document?

My password code Is this:

Sub UpDateLinks()
Const PWord As String = "0dear"
Dim xlLinks
Dim i As Integer
xlLinks = ThisWorkbook.LinkSources(xlExcelLinks)
If Not IsEmpty(xlLinks) Then
For i = 1 To UBound(xlLinks)
SendKeys PWord & "{Enter}"
ThisWorkbook.UpdateLink Name:=xlLinks(i)
Next i
End If
End Sub

Can I incorporate this somehow when enabling content?

Hopefully someone can help.

Cheers,
LG
