    Lost Excel Password

    Hi folks-

    Anybody use or know of a reliable program to strip or recover a password on an excel protected document?

    The entire file is password protected.

    We've tried a few freeware tools found through web searches but none are working so far.

    Thanks!

    Have a look at Advanced Office 2000 Password Recovery (http://www.elcomsoft.com/aopr.html) hasn't let me down yet.

    I use this expression when discussing paid service that is crap..... when things are free I like the expression;

    Have you tried contacting Microsoft? Unsure of how they would be able to help, but if you are or if you know a Microsoft Partner I am sure they could work something out
