I have a document that was created in Excel 2010 and requires a password to open. How do I remove the password so that it is no longer required?

Hi,

Welcome to the board.

Do you know the password for the spreadsheet (I assume you mean spreadsheet and not document)?

If you do, then once open click File -> Info -> Unprotect Workbook.

If you do not know the password then unfortunatly we cannot provide ways of bypassing spreadsheet security, please read section 20 of the posting guidelines:
