Hi,

If you've forgotton a worksheet/workbook protection password then there's
lots of code to do that and the best is here

If you've lost the password to open a workbook then that's a lot more
difficult and your into purchasing a password removel program. This is a good
one, it ain't cheap

By "sheet" I assume you mean "Workbook" or "File" and you need a password to
open.

There are many password crackers available on the 'net.

Do a search using that term.

Hi,

Your question is not clear - is it a sheet or a workbook that is protected.
If it is a sheet you can select the entire sheet and copy it to another
sheet. The destination sheet will not be protected. Then you can keep or
delete the original sheet.

If this helps, please click the Yes button
