    Unlock VBA project or Copy Sheets

    Hi,

    I've been handed an old workbook that has been password-protected (VBA
    source code). Does anyone know a way to unlock it or get the password? If
    not, I have a previous version that is not locked but some of the sheets have
    been modified. I tried doing a "Move or Copy" of the newer sheets but I keep
    getting formulas that reference the new workbook. Is there a way to get the
    formulas to come across literally?

    TIA
    Charlie

    One you copy the sheets, go into Edit=>Links, then change the source from
    the referenced workbook to that workbook.

    also, if the links are only between the sheets copied, then if you group the
    sheet and copy them all at once, the links will not reference the source
    workbook.
