Preview

VBA Project Preview

View the complete DVB structure before unlocking - modules, userforms, class modules and references. Know exactly what automation code you're recovering.

Batch

Batch DVB Processing

Process entire folders of DVB files at once. Ideal for CAD managers maintaining macro libraries across multiple projects or departments.

Backup

Automatic Backup

Original DVB files are automatically backed up before modification. Restore the password-protected version anytime if needed for compliance or rollback.

 Common Scenarios

When You Need to Unlock DVB Files

CAD teams often encounter locked DVB files that need updating or debugging.

Developer

CAD Developer Left

The developer who created your AutoCAD macros has left the company. You own the DVB files but can't modify the code to fix bugs or add features.

Upgrade

AutoCAD Version Upgrade

Upgrading to a new AutoCAD version requires updating VBA code for compatibility. Locked DVB files prevent necessary modifications.

Debug

Macro Errors

Your AutoCAD macros are throwing errors but you can't step through the code to debug because the VBA project is password protected.

Workflow

Workflow Changes

Your CAD workflow has changed and existing macros need updating. Layer standards, block libraries or company templates have been revised.

Forgotten

Forgotten Password

You created the DVB password years ago and no longer remember it. The macros work fine but you can't access the source code anymore.

Audit

Code Review

IT security or management needs to review VBA code before deploying macros company-wide. Password protection blocks the audit process.

 Questions & Answers

AutoCAD DVB FAQ

A DVB file is an AutoCAD VBA Project file containing macros, custom commands and automation code. Developers often password-protect DVB files to prevent unauthorized viewing or modification of source code, protect intellectual property, or prevent accidental changes to production macros.

Yes. The tool only removes the password protection. Your VBA code, modules, userforms, class modules, references and all AutoCAD automation functionality remain completely intact. The macros will work exactly as they did before.

No. The VBA Password Remover works independently without AutoCAD. You can remove passwords on any Windows computer. However, you will need AutoCAD with VBA support to load and edit the unlocked DVB file afterward.

All AutoCAD versions that support VBA are compatible, from AutoCAD 2000 through AutoCAD 2025. This includes AutoCAD LT (with VBA enabled) and all vertical products like AutoCAD Architecture, Mechanical, Electrical, MEP, Civil 3D and Plant 3D.

Use the VBALOAD command or VBAMAN (VBA Manager) to load DVB files. To edit VBA code, use VBAIDE to open the Visual Basic Editor. The unlocked DVB will no longer prompt for a password when accessing the code.

Yes, but VBA is no longer included by default in recent AutoCAD versions. You need to download and install the free VBA Enabler module from Autodesk to enable VBA support. Once installed, DVB files work normally.

Yes. The tool supports batch processing. Add multiple DVB files and remove passwords from all of them in a single operation. This is useful for CAD managers maintaining libraries of macro files.

Yes. The tool automatically creates a backup of the original password-protected DVB file before modification. You can restore the original version anytime if needed.
