Passwords in Excel
 
There is an employee who let our school more than a year ago. It is time for
us to use one of her workbooks again. Unfortunately she protected all the
sheets in the workbook and left no record of the password. Is ther anything
that can be done w/o physically going through a dozen worksheets and manually
rebuilding them anew?

Thanks,
Michael
