Situation, I can open, read, fill the formular and save document at wish even edit associated macros. The problem is how to unlock the document for editing without knowing the lock password. The method which I use was saving as RTF, open copy macros, save. The problem is now I got several documents to ?unprotect?, I do not want to doing described procedure. It will take to much time. So, how to unlock the document in some automatically method?

Good question, most of documents was heavily "designed", retyped, what ever you want, roughly two years ago by a group of assistant. As you can imagine some of them do work for us, some of them was promoted,... Result nobody remember a lock passwordfrom "so far past". Do you try even get something from a fresh promoted that remember past? Get somethnig from blackhole is simplier :-(
