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.

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.
