Hi,
Just out of curiosity...
As you know, VBA code can be protected by password.
I am not trying to crack this one, but just curious how it works..
Where this password is stored?...
Usually, in most software, encrypted password sits on some table, registry
key, file..or some storage media...I guess this would be necessary to compare
the between password user entered and set up password.
Is VBA password somehow embeded inside access MDB file as a binary
format(Not separate place)?
I guess this question also could apply to Windows OS username/password...
Is it stored somewhere in registry, file, or different place?
If encrypted password isn't stored in somewhere, how password comparision
works that user entered? (Somehow encrypted password needs to be retrieved
for comparison..I guess..)
Just curious how it works..I want to know the mechanism...
Thanks,
