  Hello,
  
  I am trying to open an excel file that is password protected using

  
  var book = new C1XLBook();
  book.Load(excelFileName);
  
  

  Currently this is throwing the error “Central dir not found”, I’m assuming this is because the Excel file is password protected. Does ComponentOne support a way to open an Excel file that is password protected ?

  Hello,

  As mentioned in the limitations in the documentation link below, C1Excel does not support loading password protected excel files:
