Forgetting passwords on documents
« on: April 20, 2009, 06:57:54 PM »
Ok -  so I am trying to open an Excel document that I haven't used in a few months. It is password protected as it contains confidential information. I put the password on but now I can't remember for the life of me what it was  redface: redface: redface:

Is there any way of bypassing this to open it ...I have tried Microsoft help and that just says tough shit basically..... cry:

We could put you into a trance and try a bit of regression?   ;)

Passwords are a nightmare. I used to only ever have one until some places insisted on a mix of upper & lower case plus digits... Now I have two. So it's either one or t'other.

You'd regress to being someone famous... everyone seems to  ;)
