Default Word 2000 protection password

Hi everyone;

We have a Word 2000 document in our office that is protected with a
password. We can open the document but cannot make any changes to it. The
employee who set the password is no longer with us and claims not to recall
it.

Is there any way to recover the document or remove the password?

Thanks!

If you can open the document, then you can Save As.
