We have a user who needs access to several Excel 97 or 2000 (not sure the original software it was created) that a former employee password protected. Are there any third party products that will do this?
Thanks

Hiya, there is many programs available off the internet that would be able to crack the passwords of protected Excel and Word documents. Most of them are sourced from Russian programmers. Simply going to Yahoo/Google and typing in "excel password remove". It just came up with 684,000 entries. Give it a try, but be careful. Most of them are not freeware (and still only run in DOS)
