If you don't have the right password then you cannot open the document with VBA, however you can test it with a list of passwords e.g.
Code:
Sub Macro1()
Const strPassword As String = "Test|password|Lorem|another" 'List the passwords separated with '|'
Const strName As String = "E:\Path\Forum\Password is lorem test.docx" 'The document to open
Dim oDoc As Document
Dim vPass As Variant
Dim i As Integer
vPass = Split(strPassword, "|")
On Error Resume Next
For i = 0 To UBound(vPass)
Debug.Print vPass(i)
Set oDoc = Documents.Open(FileName:=strName, _
PasswordDocument:=vPass(i), _
ReadOnly:=True)
If Not oDoc Is Nothing Then Exit For
Next i
lbl_Exit:
Set oDoc = Nothing
Exit Sub
End Sub
