Forgotten workbook password

[BigDelGooner]

Please help!

When password protecting an excel sheet (using the 'password to open' option), by pure fluke I think, I have mis-typed the password twice because it was accepted when I set the password but it is now not unlocking when I type what I believe to be the correct password that I set.

Does anyone know how I can get around this?

It is against board policy to help "crack" a workbook password. That said there are probably a lot of suggestions if you google the "problem". But the board cannot be held responsible for you coming up wit that idea...

Thanks Snowblizz, I completely appreciate the policy and will have a look on google.

God knows what password I have accidently typed...twice!!

U can find lots of utilities to crack the password after a little googling but they are not free and can take a very-very long time to crack a workbook open password.
