Default Password

Hi,

No except by cracking the password with code. Write all your passwords down
on a piece of paper and place it between the pages of a book.. I use the page
in my dictionary that contains the word "password". While I can imagine
someone trying to hack files on my PC it is very unlikely they will be
reading a dictionary while they do it.

What do you mean by 'excel sheet'? If you mean one sheet within an Excel
workbook (i.e. within a .xls file), then either of these sites should help:

http://www.straxx.com/excel/password.html
http://www.mcgimpsey.com/excel/removepwords.html

But if you are asking about not being able to open a .xls file from hard
drive/network because you don't have the password, then that is something
completely different.
