Axolot Data

Hi,

We are trying to create password-protected files. The logic used is:

XLS := TXLSReadWriteII5.Create (Nil);
XLS.FileName := 'SampleFilename.xls'; // also tried 'SampleFileName.xlsx'
XLS.Version := xvExcel97; // also tried xvExcel2007
XLS.Password := 'Password';

// code to fill in the cells

XLS.Write;

The files contain the correct data, however they are not password-protected. This was working with XLSReadWriteII version 4.

We'd be grateful of any help here.

Thanks

Hello

Sorry, encrypted files are only supported for XLS files, not XLSX. This will be added in a later update (please don't ask when this update is ready).

Hi,

I'm not too worried about xlsx files, but passwords don't seem to be working using xls files either. The following code demonstrates the problem. Running this using XLSReadWriteII4 (with suitable change to unit and object names) gives me an exl file which is password protected.

XL.Password := 'password';
XL.Sheets[0].AsString[0,0] := 'Test cell';
XL.Write;

end;

end.
