password protected

[greg]

Hello,
I need to write a program to open and update a bunch of word documents.
problem is, that some are password protected.
and if i hit them, then the user password dialog opens.
is there a way to tell if a document is password protected? an open
command?
so i know to skip that document?

thanks
