Default corrupted .xls / Copy Modules???

An Excel VBA program I've spent much time on somehow got corrupted and wont
open up, I have an eternal hourglass when I open the file that wont go away
no matter what I do. Though I regularly back up my work, this corrupted file
represents a whole days worth of coding that I cant get too.
Is there absolutely anyway I can get to my modules code and copy it over to
another workbook maybe thru VBA. Also, I have password protected my modules.
Just grasping at straws here before I start over.

thank you.

Hi Bret,

Several people have reported the ability to recover code modules using the
Open Office suite which is available as (60MB+) download at:

http://www.openoffice.org/

There is also a CD option.
