how do you guys do this? I've always stored mine on an external drive in an xls. What I'm considering doing now though, as an alternative to saving passwords in the browser's memory, is to write a script similar to my FAQ here about automating internet explorer with visual basic. This way I don't have to copy and paste the strings from xl to chrome. I haven't let my browsers store my passwords for a while now, but I used to do it all the time. What do the experts say about storing PWs in browsers' memories? I've heard they advise against it.
If I do go with a script to replace my manual method now, it won't be visual basic. Does anyone know if other languages have browser libraries and libraries that allow the languages to interact with spreadsheet objects? My current boss told me he wrote a Python script to try and automate the lookup of PO numbers in an internal database, which led me to believe that Python could do what I want. From everything I've read about Python, it apparently has a very extensive library?
Richard...where are you when I need you!?
