Remove password protected sheet
 
I received a weight tracker a couple of years ago and it is not a protected
sheet but password protected - is there any way to bypass the password to
update some cells? I am trying to extend a date range. Thanks, Anna

Remove password protected sheet
 
if it's not protected but it is password protected, that'd mean ALL cells
are marked as not locked. Unlikely. If you can't update some cells, then it
IS protected. If you could type in them, that'd sort of negate the purpose
of using a password, no? I'm afraid you need to get the password.
