Does anyone know how to unprotect excel spreadsheets in a protected Word document?

To solve your Excel part of this, create a section break before and after the Excel section.  Make this an unprotected section.  In Excel 2003 and 2002, I believe, when you protect the document through the menu system, the taskpane will pop up.  Under Editing Restrictions, select Filling in Forms.  There should be a link called Select Sections.  Now, select the sections you want protected (the ones with the drop downs) and unselect the ones you don't (the Excel).  I believe there is something similar feature in previous versions of Word, but I don't remember the exact wording.

You can experiment with dir /b, but probably the easiest way would be to drop the files.txt you already have into a spreadsheet, and just delete the columns of info that you don't need.

I know whats the problem.\n\nYour file extentions are not properly registered in teh system registry. This is not something a normal person should attempt to fix - even if they know how.\n\nI know roughly how to do it but I wouldn't try either - I would simply advise to reinstall word and excel instead and let the installer reset the registry keys.\n\nJ

iTunes does that. For protected files, you just have to burn them to a CD.\n(Use a CD-RW or a disc image).

Because someone has sharing enabled on the workbook.\n\nIf it is your workbook alone, just go to Tools | Share Workbook... and turn it off.

In addition to what was already said.  Before you add the protection, you should make sure the cells you want you want locked are actually locked.  To do this, select the cell, or group [Edit] of [/Edit] cells.  Right click, and in the Protection tab, select, or de-select the locked box.\nThen you can use the protection from the tools menu.  Add a password, and remember it, so you can update the file, if needed.

There are lots of software that can do this. Password to Modify worksheets & VBA modules are easy to crack. These objects are encrypted using a 16 bit key. If I remember correctly, there possible combinations with this hash is about 10,000 so VBA can cycle through all the combinations extremely fast.\n\nPassword to open a workbook uses a RC4 stream cipher which is a 40 bit key. I don't remember the possible combinations but I know it is exponentially higher than the 16 bit key. It takes days or weeks of constant running the cracker to open a workbook, it it opens at all.\n\nI use:\nhttp://www.straxx.com/excel/password.html
