How to add a digital signature to a dvb vba project

Hi,

I need to add a digital signature to a dvb project file, but I can't seem to find how to do this. The VBA help file mentions digital signatures in several places, and states that there is a "Digital Signature" item on the tools menu, however I do not see this. I have a signing certificate installed in Windows.

 

Any ideas?

 

Thanks!

Dvb's don't accept digital signatures. They only can have a password assigned. Digital signatures apply to dwg's.

Thanks for the reply Ed.

I'm just wondering then why when you load a dvb file AutoCAD displays a "Security - Unsigned Executable file" warning with unknown publisher. See attached screenshot. It's obviously looking for a digital signature.

Also the VBA help file mentions being able to add a digital signature. See second screenshot.

 

Cheers,

Neil.

The same IDE is used for Word, Excel and other apps. I checked Word and the option is on that Tools menu. I guess it just isn't enabled for dvb's. I checked by embedding a project in a dwg and it still isn't available. All you can do is password protect it.
