automate the pdf password generation from database extract RRS feed

  • Question

  • Hi,   I need to automate the pdf password generation from database extract

    e.g. Excel database with StaffID, StaffName, Month, etc. Then when the pdf is created, its password would be <StaffID>_<Month> which is extracted from excel.  

    Is it possible for this to happen??

    What system language would be suitable in this context?? 

    Any relevant guidance and advice is very well appreciated!

  • Hi melodycyy,

    Welcome to the MSDN forum!

    It is OK to extract StaffID and Month Info from a database. However, since I am not familiar with pdf programming, you need to ask questions about pdf password coding in some more proper forum:

    Thanks for your understanding and have a nice day.
