Can you open the document? If the document is read-only protected, save the
document with a different name and remove the password from the Tools
General menu from the Word 2007 save as dialog

How can I unprotect a password protected WORD 2007 doc?
I need to edit and I will never find the author. I can't even select

thanks!
