Hi Rob,

Thanks for posting here!

MICROSOFT ENGINEERS CANNOT ASSIST, UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES, IN THE BREAKING
OF PASSWORDS APPLIED TO FILES AND FEATURES WITHIN MICROSOFT PROGRAMS. It is
technically not possible for Microsoft engineers to break the password on a
password-protected file or feature within a Microsoft program. The
password-protection systems built into Microsoft programs are designed to
be unbreakable; there would be no point in including a password-protection
system that could be broken.

For more information, please refer to the KB article: 189126 Microsoft's
Policy Regarding Missing or Invalid Passwords
http://support.microsoft.com/?id=189126

Have a nice day!

Sincerely,

Hi,

I quote from a recent post which I hope may prove helpful to you...

Please do not attempt to access a file unless you are authorised to do
so.
