Are you sure there's no other way around this? Is the file protected from opening or from editing? If it's only protected from editing, open it up and copy and paste the information to a new Excel worksheet.

Hope that helps.

Kevin.

There are shareware programs that crack ms office passwords. You have to pay for most of them.

There may be still be one that will give you the first few letters (until you buy it). That might job your memory. Search for "Password"
