kindly advice how to generate password at microsoft word & excel?

Hi Vivien,

I have a worksheet that will create multiple random passwords from eight to 
four characters.  You get four passwords for each calculate.

You just hit F9 for Calculate and a new list of passwords is produced in 
column D, a list of four new passwords each time.

I do not know if ALL the passwords are UNIQUE, but suspect the chances of a 
duplicate is extremely rare.

If you want the workbook reply to me at LHKittle@comcast.net and I will send 
it as an attachment.

Regards,
Howard

Take the following action in EXCEL 2007:-

1. Launch EXCEL so that it has a new file in it. 

2. Click on the Office Button (top left hand corer). 

3. Prepare / Encrypt Document / enter the password that you want to use (for 
example test). 

 - OK 

 - enter the password again (test) 

 - OK 

 - Save the file in the normal way (Ctrl-S) 

4. Close the file in the normal way (Office Button in top left hand corner / 
Close). 

5. Now open the file once more. To get into it you will have to enter the 
password (test). 

If my comments have helped please hit Yes. 

Thanks.

I have just checked WORD 2007 and it works in exactly the same way. 

You can choose any password that you like.
