Passwords on Word 2000

[Lefteris]

Hi

Some time ago I protected a Word 2000 doc with a password but I cannot
remember the password now! This results in my not being able to open the doc
- is there any way I can remove the password and thus open the doc again?

MAny thanks

If it is just protected for forms (or, I think, tracked changes), you can
remove the protection by inserting it into a fresh document (using Insert |
File). But if it protected with a password to open, you'll have to remember
the password.

There are a number of password recovery tools available at
