    Removing password in documents made in older version of Excel

    Hello everyone. I am Karina from Belgium.
    I have some documents on my private computer that have a password (I put it in myself years ago). These documents were made with an older version of excel (2003 I believe).
    Now I have Excel 2010 starter and I can open and change these documents. For private reasons however I want to remove the password now.
    I just don't find how to do it.
    It seems that some features needed, don't show on my excel screen.
    Who can help me with this ? Thanks in advance.
    I don't give in, I just change my mind

    Welcome to the Forum!

    I'm sorry to have to issue a warning on your first post but posting information here about how to break passwords is against our forum rules, even if you own the files, even if you forgot your own password.

    I will give you the benefit of the doubt but I'm afraid you will have to get this answered somewhere else.
