I am not sure what you need to do here, phish! But I pulled up some links for you through Google, give that a whirl. Also, if you post your code, we can see what is happening:

Thanks Dököll, but the google leads to a lots of password recovery tool pages， lol
here's my code

Dim ppApp As PowerPoint.Application
Set ppApp = CreateObject("Powerpoint.Application")
 
Dim ppPres As PowerPoint.Presentation
Set ppPres = ppApp.Presentations.Open(pptFileName)
'this pptFileName is password protected
 

when the code runs here, it opens the pptFileName, which of course asks for the password, what I want to achieve is to let the following code to send the password to the ppt inputbox (for password)
