How do i lockup a locked excelfile if i have forgot the password?
 
I have made some calculations on excel and then locked the file. But that was
several months aga. I donÂīt remember the password i used. Shall i through
away the file and start all over again? Or is it possible to find the
password?

Regards // Halil

Good morning Halil

It depends on what you mean by "lock". If you password protected the
file then you have a few options. Try looking here for a few tips on
companies that will unlock the file :

http://j-walk.com/ss/excel/links/pword.htm

If your passwords are relatively simple (either an English word, or
less than eight characters long) then try this:

It's free and should be fairly successful, if you havent' made the
password too complex.
