Hi ?B?c3V6eXJvYg==?=,

Is there anyway to "unprotect" a document when no one can remember the
password. I have a huge document that was created with "tracking changes"
and now the changes cannot be accepted or rejected and the "track changes"
cannot be turned off, because it appears the document is protected. However
none of the people participating in making the changes recalls ever having
"protected" the document in the first place.

See if using Insert/File to bring it into a new document helps at all. This
will drop form field protection, but I've never tried it with track changes.
