Unlock, locked spreadsheet

[Matty B]

I have a spreadsheet that I created a while ago, and have just gone back into it. I have password protected the spreadsheet before I last left it, and now can't remember the password.

Is there anyway of unlocking the spreadsheet without the password, becuase it took a long time to setup and don't want to have to do it all again!

Good afternoon MattyB

How much in fiscal terms is your spreadsheet worth to you, because you may well have to pay for it.

Firstly, if your passwords are relatively simple (either an English word, or less than nine characters long) then try this:

It's free and should be fairly successful, if you haven't made the password too complex.

If that fails, then you'll have to pay someone to crack it for you, or buy some software to do so. These sites below each list a number of 3rd parties to do this.
