Unlocking Documents

I need to open some password protected XLS documents.
Nothing untoward . Originator has gone to Australia and cannot be contacted .
There is no read only option .
I have opened one before but just cannot remember how I did it .
Thanks Guys .

This should work fine. Haven't used it myself but sure give it a go anyway.

i did find a good free one a few years ago but can't remember its name but there may be a work around

1. Download and Install OpenOffice 3.0 and open Calc
2. Open your xls file.
3. Click tools in the menu bar and point to Protect Document
4. Click Sheet, Note: the check must be removed!
5. Click File and Save As, rename your document!

heres one that might work as well
