Examples

Shows how to load an encrypted Microsoft Word document.

Document doc;

// Aspose.Words throw an exception if we try to open an encrypted document without its password.
Assert.Throws<IncorrectPasswordException>(() => doc = new Document(MyDir + "Encrypted.docx"));

// When loading such a document, the password is passed to the document's constructor using a LoadOptions object.
LoadOptions options = new LoadOptions("docPassword");

// There are two ways of loading an encrypted document with a LoadOptions object.
// 1 -  Load the document from the local file system by filename:
doc = new Document(MyDir + "Encrypted.docx", options);
// 2 -  Load the document from a stream:
using (Stream stream = File.OpenRead(MyDir + "Encrypted.docx"))
{
    doc = new Document(stream, options);
}
