unable to open protected document I created
I created a document with formulas and made it PW protected. I am now
precluded to open the document to make edits. I am unable to select "unprotect" and use PW to make edits. I don't know how this can happen on a document I authored and have ownership. I need this document desperately. |

If so, and you forgot the password, there's very little you can do other than try to guess the password or pay a service to try to figure out the password. If you think you remember the password, the first thing to try is reversing the capitalization you think you used in case Caps Lock was on when you entered the password. |

I don't know how this can happen on a document I authored and have ownership. I need this document desperately. If the protection is greyed out it will normally be because either the workbook is shared, in which case unshare it and all will be well, or the code is in break mode, stop debugger and you should then be able to enter your password....other than that i don't see how it could happen. -- Simon Lloyd Regards, Simon Lloyd 'The Code Cage' (http://www.thecodecage.com) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Simon Lloyd's Profile: http://www.thecodecage.com/forumz/member.php?userid=1 View this thread: http://www.thecodecage.com/forumz/sh...d.php?t=111100 |
