Hi all,

I have a looping code to open workbooks and copy then paste data to another workbook. Each workbook I open has a password. They are all the same password, how do I get it to enter automatically?

Here is my code so far

Code:
Sub OpenAndClearContentsInColumnAA()

    Dim strF As String, strP As String
    Dim wb As Workbook
    Dim ws As Worksheet




'Edit this declaration to your folder name
strP = "T:\Lender Updates\Lender Updates\Lloyds\Paid" 'change for the path of your folder




strF = Dir(strP & "\*.xlsm") 'Change as required




Do While strF <> vbNullString




    Set wb = Workbooks.Open(strP & "\" & strF)
    Set ws = wb.Sheets("Paid") 'uses first sheet or if all the same names then ws.Sheets("yoursheet")
    ws.Range("A2").Select
    Range(Selection, Selection.End(xlToRight)).Select
    Range(Selection, Selection.End(xlDown)).Select
    Selection.Copy
    ThisWorkbook.Activate
    ActiveSheet.Range("A" & Rows.Count).End(xlUp).Offset(1).Select
    Selection.PasteSpecial
    wb.Close True
    
    strF = Dir()
Loop




End Sub

Hi,
just include the password (case sensitive) where shown in your workbooks.Open method

Rich (BB code):
Set wb = Workbooks.Open(strP & "\" & strF, Password:="mypasswordhere")
