Is there a way to automate code signing a VBA project in a Word 2003 and/or Word 2007 document?

By automate I mean via a command line utility or via Word VBA automation?

Motivation: I would like to code sign several Word templates as part of an automated daily build and distribution cycle. Right now we have to do this manually by opening each document in Word and resigning.

Thank you, Malcolm

But it clearly does not fail on my system. The Verification test in XCode during the submission should (I assume) test this.
