Automation - opening protected presentation

Recommended Posts

Hi!

I'm trying to open a protected presentation (PPT 2003) with read-password, without getting the dialog asking me the password.

In Excel Automation, the open method has a DocumentPassword to avoid this dialog, but doesn't exists in PowerPoint.

Any suggestions?

Thank you in advance
