I have a password problem

[Tim Zanor]

we terminated an employee for wrong doing and have found out he password
protected an excel spreadsheet file
that we need is there a way to get around the password protection other
problem is I'm not sure if its just the file he protected it may also be the
workbook any information would be a big help

You'll likely need a password breaker. You can Search Google for one, or you
can search here by typing somehting like "break workbook password" in the
Search for line.

If file protection you will need a password to open the file.

If workbook protection you will need a password to unprotect the workbook.

Should be fairly easy to determine which it is.

If workbook only see http://www.mcgimpsey.com/excel/removepwords.html

If file protection do a google search or an Internet search for Password
Crackers.
