Re: Recover Word Password

So far the disgruntled employee is refusing to provide the passwords. The
script editor requires that you open the document.not good because we need a
password to open these documents. If I copy the document to another media
type will the password follow?

If the documents are password protected against opening, the simple
solution would be to ask the ex-employee for the password. If they are
protected for forms see http://www.gmayor.com/Remove_Password.htm

Word's encryption is highly effective and you will not easily get past it.
