Default Document Protection

I have a programme (downloaded from the Internet somewhere) that allows me
to 'unprotect' protected Excel worksheets where the password is not known -
some form of Macro that works extremely quickly and very well.

Is there a similar programme/macro available to remove the protection from
Word documents?

Thanks.

Default Document Protection

Hi Terry

Try Google, if you're happy with handing over your credit card number to
people who break file protection for a living.

It might help if you know what cryptography settings were used to save the
document in the first place (see Tools Options Security Advanced for
the list).

Hope this helps.
