Unfortunately these programs do not tend to live up to the hype. The demos
and their ability to crack four digit passwords seem impressive enough, but
a complex password can take a seriously long time to crack - and then you
have the dubious pleasure of handing over your credit card details to
someone who cracks passwords for a living - you need to think very carefully
about this.

There are lots of programs around that will 'crack' the password in
Word documents (and most other 'secured' Microsoft files).
Do a Google, and you should find somthing that will help.
Be a little careful though, as although most of the programs are
legitamate, inevitably, searching for ways to crack passwords will
sometimes lead you to some of the darker parts of the Web...
Cheers,

If it is protected, then open a blank document and use Insert, File
and insert the protected document. This will unlock it.
If it is password protected against opening, then you're stuck. Only
hypnosis or torture is left.

I have a protected Word document that we have forgotten the
password for. Is there any way possible to unprotect this document?
Thank You very much. CEV
