Password not working on excel

[waqar1239]

Hi All,

I am working on the database. My database is password protected.
But today when I closed this database it's not accepting the password.
"The password you supply is not correct. Verify that the CAPSLOCK key is off and be sure to use the correct capitalization"

I am getting this error. But I am using the correct password.

I already restarted my machine as well but could not get any success. Please can someone help me. I already done lot of work on that sheet. Please advice me.

IS it a password with alphanumeric characters ??
If so, make sure NumLok is turned off.
IS a SHIFT keypress required to complete the password ?
Have you accidentally changed the password.....a leading / trailling space perhaps ??
IS the sheet protection via a macro ? If so, post the code.

It's on my local drive.
