Default Hidden Tabs in a Workbook

Is this a real old workbook? Maybe created in xl95?

I'm not sure if I remember correctly, but it this was created in xl95, then all
your macros were created in macro sheets--not VBE modules.

I think that excel is counting those macro sheets (now converted to modules) as
sheets.

Never mind....I figured it out. The only thing is that the =INFO states it
should be 20 tabs, and I only get 14. It looks like it is all there, but I
am not sure.

Hi,

Very simple:

Add the following code to a different workbook:

Sub makevisible()
For Each sh In Worksheets
sh.Visible = True
Next sh
End Sub

then move to the workbook with hidden sheet and run it.

There are several hidden tabs in the workbook I am attempting to salvage from
a crash that I cannot access. I can 12 tabs, and know there are 17 based on
the =INFO("numfile") expression I added to one of the open tabs. The problem
is that the file has no passwords on it, and neither does the workbook. When
I try to use the VBA editor in explorer mode I am getting asked for a
password which I do not know. I know the name of one of the tabs as it is in
a formula, and data is getting pulled from the tab. I just cannot get to the
tabs to change the information let alone see if it is all correct.

Is there something like a password breaker similar to the the one on
www.straxx.com or am I up the creek on this?
Thanks
