Workbook.PasswordEncryptionAlgorithm Property (2007 System)
Gets the algorithm that Microsoft Office Excel uses to encrypt passwords for the workbook.
Namespace: Microsoft.Office.Tools.Excel
Assembly: Microsoft.Office.Tools.Excel.v9.0 (in Microsoft.Office.Tools.Excel.v9.0.dll)
Syntax
'Declaration
<BrowsableAttribute(False)> _
Public ReadOnly Property PasswordEncryptionAlgorithm As String
'Usage
Dim instance As Workbook
Dim value As String
value = instance.PasswordEncryptionAlgorithm
[BrowsableAttribute(false)]
public string PasswordEncryptionAlgorithm { get; }
[BrowsableAttribute(false)]
public:
property String^ PasswordEncryptionAlgorithm {
String^ get ();
}
public function get PasswordEncryptionAlgorithm () : String
Property Value
Type: System.String
The algorithm that Excel uses to encrypt passwords for the workbook.
Remarks
Use the SetPasswordEncryptionOptions method to specify whether Excel encrypts file properties for password-protected workbooks.
Examples
The following code example checks the value of the HasPassword property to determine whether the workbook is password protected. If the workbook is not password protected, then the example sets the Password property to a password obtained from user input, and then calls the SetPasswordEncryptionOptions method to set the encryption algorithm, set the key length, set the name of the encryption provider, and enable file property encryption. The example then displays the values of the PasswordEncryptionProvider, PasswordEncryptionAlgorithm, PasswordEncryptionKeyLength, and PasswordEncryptionFileProperties properties in worksheet Sheet1. This example assumes that the method GetPasswordFromUserInput is defined elsewhere.
This example is for a document-level customization.
Private Sub WorkbookPasswordOptions()
If Not Me.HasPassword Then
Me.Password = GetPasswordFromUserInput()
Me.SetPasswordEncryptionOptions( _
"Microsoft RSA SChannel Cryptographic Provider", _
"RC4", 128, True)
End If
' Display the password properties in Sheet1.
