I have some Excel 2000 worksheets that were created about 8 years ago and were password protected when created. We still use them but need to make some changes and can't because we no longer know the password. Is it possible to bypass the password or somehow find out what it is?

Plus you will need to purchase the software to work completely.

Please post back if you have any more problems or questions.

Thanks. This software utility dug the password out for me in no time flat. It was a nonsense password that was NOT entered when the worksheet was created. I think it was created in a very old version of Excel, so I suspect that when saving it in a newer version the password was changed by Excel. That's the only explanation I can come up with.

I went there and only read the first little bit. I looked again
and ok, no complaints here.
