No password is required when ProOffice populates XML files directly. This is independent of the protection settings. |
The ProOffice AddIn for Microsoft Word supports documents which are working with forms and are having a form protection. In order to add values to such a document, the user must know the relevant password. The password set in the customizing will then be canceled temporarily and reset with the same password. All values in the form fields will remain.
