How do I unlock a protected worksheet
 

I have a password protected worksheet that nobody seems to know the password
to. How can i get around the password protection to change the cell
structures such as fonts, etc.?

Hi Terry
Have a look here for bypassing passwords.

Keep in mind though that the previous user put a password on there for a
reason. Make a copy of your sheet before you make any changes

Michael,

Thanks for the info. This is for a potential client of mine who got the
spreadsheet from a company they do business with. The company says they
didn't password protect the file, but it asks for one and you can't change
any of the fonts, font sizes, or cell structures without it.

I told my client to be to copy and paste first. We'll see how that works.
