Default Recovering passwords for protected worksheets


I have inherited some Excel workbooks. Some have password protected
worksheets but the whereabouts of the person who put them together is
unknown.

Is there anyway of recovering the passwords?

I don't think so, but there are many password removers out there that work
(some free). Once you have the non password version you can add one if you
like ?
