MS Access Forum / Security / May 2007Access coding to VB
Are there anyway to just view or transfer the coding of an application to vb if it locked by access vba project password ? I need to copy my application to vb but just can;t find the password breaker since i forget it. Pls advise Daniel >Are there anyway to just view or transfer the coding of an application to vb >if it locked by access vba project password ? I need to copy my application >to vb but just can;t find the password breaker since i forget it. Pls advise The only way to do it (that I know of) is to export your modules from inside that application, and of course you'd need the password to do this. I'm sure there are some VBA password crack programs out there, but I've never looked for one because I don't use the VBA password. Scott McDaniel scott@takemeout_infotrakker.com www.infotrakker.com I found 1 vba crack password program but it expose 2 characters (thats fine) but it is like ACSII character which i never key in before. Anyway to reset the password?

Anyway to reset >the password? Only from inside the VBA project. Tools - <db name> Properties, Protection tab allows you to enter and verify a password. I'd assume you could reset the password there, but don't really know as I've never tried it. As Gunny said, there are plenty of password crackers that can do this, or just recode it. Your code isn't going to port directly over to VB anyway, and you often have as hard a time modifying the code as you do just rewriting it. Scott McDaniel scott@takemeout_infotrakker.com www.infotrakker.com Hi, Daniel. > Are there anyway to just view or transfer the coding of an application to > vb if it locked by access vba project password ? If there were, everyone would use that method to bypass the VBA password. It wouldn't be very secure, now would it? You won't be able to transfer the VBA project to another database without the password. If you can't remember it or find it, then you'll have to resort to a backup that doesn't have the VBA password assigned, or get a tool that reads the password, or hire someone who knows how to read the password for you. Or else you can start recoding. The second time around is usually faster than the first, and the code is usually written better the second time because previous mistakes are (usually) avoided. HTH.

There are some programs which claim to do a partial conversion of Access to Visual Basic. This is separate from having the required passwords of course. It would assist the answer, if you said exactly what it was you wanted to achieve and why. No professional developer forgets their own passwords!

They usually recover corrupted databases, not passwords, but it's the best I can think of at the moment.

Hi Chris, I think I understand but could you be more specific. Respectfully, Barry > It was an issue of professionality, Barry. |
