Hi =?Utf-8?B?WkxB?=,
I have some VBA code that should only run if the user enters a valid password
that is validated by a web page.
Is this possible and how?
It should be possible, but I can't tell you exactly how to do it, which is why I
didn't answer before now...
Basically, whatever you can do in another programming language, such as VB, you
can do in Word VBA. There are tools/object libraries you can reference in Word
(Tools/References) that will let you communicate with web servers (which is what
I assume you mean). This doesn't fall within my area of expertise, although I
did something similar once, quite a while ago, in a course.
My advice would be to ask in a group that deals with classic VB6 and ask how to
do it in VB6. Be sure to describe exactly what you mean by validating a password
over a web page (get technical: asp? something else?).
