    A dream is not something you see when you are asleep, but something you strive for when you are awake.

    It's usually a bad idea to say that something can't be done.

    The difference between dream and aim, is that one requires soundless sleep to see and the other requires sleepless efforts to achieve

    Vaibhav, the cross post is just highlighted for volunteers to keep a track of whether someone has given a solution elsewhere or not, and not to spend their free time wastefully. I'm sure you'd appreciate that it's just a matter of informing the forum that this has been cross posted on another location.

    To add a digital signature to a PDF using VBA, you’ll first need to ensure you have a PDF library that supports signing. With Adobe Acrobat or a similar tool, you can use VBA to interact with the PDF through the library’s COM interface. Write a VBA macro to open the PDF, access the signature field, and apply the digital signature using your certificate. Remember to handle any security prompts that may appear.

    I've been stuck on this exact issue too! Adding digital signatures to PDFs using VBA can be a real pain. Robin77's suggestion to use a PDF library with a COM interface makes sense, but I'm still unclear on how to implement it.
