forgotten password

Topic

New Reply

I have a spread sheet (workbook) that evidently has a password – I created it in 2006 – and have forgotten it.

I ran a windows office password recovery tool from microsoft, but the password it comes up with won’t work. I do not think I would ever have created the password it shows (*****7**3) or something like that. Never the less it won[‘t work.

I am fairly certain that I would have created it in the form xx999999 but I can’t seem to find the password.

Since there is only one workbook / sheet involved, I am hesitant to spend $30 or so to solve the problem.

Does anyone know a free or very cheap excel 2003 password cracker?

Thanks in advance

Tom

You might try opening it in Open Office.
