Default Copy a protected document

I have a protected word document (password unknown). By reading
several postings, it seems as though I should still be able to copy
text from the document to paste into a new doc. Copy and paste is
gray, Ctrl+A doesn't work, ect. Is there a way to copy protected
text? Thanks.


It's not protected in the usual way; it's been protected with a macro, most
likely, which you don't have and which won't be part of the document.
