Excel Passwords

We had an individual leave our company that had created
some key Excel documents that had passwords put on them.
Is there any utility that will let me reset the password?

Thanks in advance

Hi,

There are various websites out there where you can remove/recover a
lost or forgotten password in an Excel workbook or unprotect an Excel
worksheet.

I quote from a recent post which I hope may prove helpful to you...

Please do not attempt to access a file unless you are authorised to do
so.

A program to recover lost or forgotten passwords to
files/documents created in Microsoft Excel: password to open,
password to modify, passwords to workbook and individual sheets.
Most passwords are recovered instantly; "password to open" for
Excel 97/2000/XP documents, however, is very strong and requires
brute-force and dictionary attacks (plese look at the
help file for details), which are effective for short (up
to 7-8 chars) or simple passwords only.

If you want to recover passwords to file/documents created
in other MS Office components (Word, Outlook, Outlook
Express, VBA, user-level security in Access) and other
Microsoft software (such as Project, Backup, Mail, Schedule+),
please look at Advanced Office 2000 Password Recovery which
is available at:
