How to unlock the project if it is locked
Hi =?Utf-8?B?UmVkIE1hZ2U=?=,
This should better be discussed in a macro group, such as word.vba.general, however... You cannot programmatically change the content of the VBA project if it is "locked for viewing" (protected). Perhaps if you explain (in the macro newsgroup) why you would need to copy and delete modules one could think of an alternate approach... I locked MySample template Project using Tools - Template Project Properties - Protection tab -under Lock project group i checked the checkbox (Lock for viewing) and also the password "mypassword" in the password fields.This way i protected the document. Now MySample template is protected,but i need to delete a module from this template and i have to copy a module from other template using VBA.

how do I unlock a document created by myself??
tberry- If you have MS Office '07, then the problem may be that you need to
register the product before your Office programs will work properly. You'll need to locate your 25 charcter product key. This key is located in the package in which the program came. Also, you should be getting prompted to enter this key when you launch an Office program such as Word. The prompt text is incorrect stating that Micrsoft does not "require" the key, rather that it only "recommends" that you register the product. This is simply not true. You have to register the product eventually as the program only allows you to bypass the product key prompt 25 times before it will lock or "diminish functionality" of your MS Office programs. It sounds like your "locked" toolbars are the result. Good luck! tberry" wrote: Thanx. When I right-clicked on a toolbar, the drop down menu showed that my toolbars were locked. I clicked it and removed the check next to "lock toolbar". I don't know if that is unlocking my word program or not. I can't even download a memo template and use it because it is locked already. "Suzanne S. Barnhill" wrote: Do you get a menu of toolbars when you right-click on a toolbar? Do you get a Toolbars item on the Tools menu (you may have to expand the menu to see it)?

If this is a protected form, inserting it into a blank document (via the
Insert File dialog box) will clear the protection. To open the Insert File dialog box: Click Insert | File (Word 2003) or click Insert tab | Object | Text from File (Word 2007). -- Stefan Blom Microsoft Word MVP "hy1911" wrote in message ...
