Hello there,
Hope all is well. I am using poi 3.7 and 1.6 jdk. I am using both HSSF and
XSSF ( 2003 and 2007 excel files). All I wanted to do was to read the
password protected files and I do have the password with me.
In excel 2007 ... I can provide Workbook password protection using 1)
Under Review --> Protect workbook 2) Save As --> Tools --> General Option 3)
Prepare --> Encrpt document ...... these 3 mechanisms to password protect my
workbook.
When I did search on the forum, I see that encrypted workbook can't be
opened with POI. But which of the above mentioned 3 password protection
mechanism encrypt the excel workbook....all of them or only # 3 from above.
If only # 3, can someone please provide sample code/link to read password
protected workbook that are not encrypted. Something like
Workbook.open("username","Password").
Please let me know if I have missed on something.
Thanks in advance,
Sam
