FYI, file protection and worksheet protection are very
different. Worksheet protection, which is apparently your
situation, is very easy to break. File protection is very
difficult. By the way, according to what I've read in the
newsgroups, an exemployee has a legal obligation to
provide passwords that they have set for company files and
can be sued by the company if they don't. There are legal
precedants in this regard.

I know a way to break worksheet protection with just two
lines of code. However, I'm not willing to share that
here. A method that requires at least a little VBA
knowledge can be found at John Walkenbauch's site:

Hi everyone!

Thnank you for reading this!

We have an Excel file which is password protected.
Management had to let someone go and the sleazy person
left the file with a password. I mean you can open it and
see it, but the worksheet is protected.

Is there anyway to brake it? or find it?

Thank you very much!

Mario
