Default How to open a password protected word document??

I don't like giving advice on this subject but protected Word documents are
reasonably well protected and there is no clever way to crack them - if it
was easy there wouldn't really be any point in protecting documents in the
first place. All that password crackers do is try lots of passwords very
quickly but, as you've found out, they can take forever and a day to do this
if you can't remember anything at all to help them along a little.

All you can really do is learn a lesson: don't forget your password.
