I have a workbook that has been password protected and has sheets that are hidden in it. We need to unprotect the workbook so we can access the hidden sheets but my coworker who created the book can't remember the password used to protect the book.

Does anybody have a macro that can assist with unprotecting the workbook so we don't lose the data saved within the hidden sheets if we are missing the password used to protect.
 

Excel Facts

What do {} around a formula in the formula bar mean?
{Formula} means the formula was entered using Ctrl+Shift+Enter signifying an old-style array formula.

As jonmo1 referred to, it is against forum rules to assist in password breaking, as such things can be used for malicious purposes (not necessarily by the person posting the question, but by anyone browsing the forum).
