From Norman Harker Here's the standard collation of resources: Please note that unauthorized use of password recovery techniques can breach software license agreements and leave you without otherwise available assistance and remedies. You may also be liable to being sued or even prosecuted under the terms of the software license. You can in some cases be in breach of terms of your employment contract and find yourself out on the street. You are also warned that civil and criminal proceedings risks should not be viewed lightly. If in any doubt, don't! Most, if not all, software providers, will assist by email, free of charge, genuine cases where users have lost passwords and/or registration codes. The real lessons to be learned? Keep a track of your passwords. Look after your employees and they'll not leave without telling you the passwords! Excel is not, and has never been made out to be, secure as a mode of storing data. The following sites advertise ability to recover, amongst other things, Excel file passwords. These passwords are imposed when saving Excel files and are not to be confused with *internal* passwords on sheets and workbook structure. http://www.intertek.org.uk/ Excel Workbook recovery. Demo version up to 2 characters free. Full version for $5 advertises ability to recover any password. Elcomsoft Advanced Office XP Password Recovery http://www.elcomsoft.com/aoxppr.html Unregistered (trial) version can be used during 30 days after installation (although it doesn't expire, actually) and has some limitations. They have programs for earlier versions. Cost of license $30 Lostpassword.Com http://www.lostpassword.com/excel.htm All versions of MS Excel are supported (including Excel 2002) $45. Download demo version covers 2 character passwords and works but not much use. The licensed version covers passwords up to 9 characters. They do have a 4-7 day guaranteed decryption service for a fee! AccentSoft Excel password recovery http://www.denglad.com/en/excel.shtml Free trial version for up to 4 characters.
