How do I open a WORD document which is password protected?

I need to open a word document, which is password protected.  I can't even get to a page that'll allow me to put in the password!!!  Can anyone advise how I can do this?
Thanks.

Hi JoeyR.
Thanks for your reply.
I get the following message when I try to open the document: "The Word document is password protected and can’t be imported".
I've looked at the Open Office software, as you suggested, but it seems confusing.  I'll give it a try, though, as I'm wasting too much time!

  • How can i open encrypted word documents and still be able to edit?

    I need to open encrypted word documents at my work to edit reports which are sensitive in nature, then be able to send them back to colleagues encrypted. I would like to do this all on my iPad. Are there specific apps I can download to be able to do this? Right now I'm using Google Drive for documents online and would like to be able to utilize this.

    You can download these free MS Office apps (Word, Excel, PowerPoint) to view (but not create or edit) these files.

  • How can I open a word document in C++ with a CNiWordApplication object?

    Hello,
    For an application, i need to open a word document using VisualC++ and CNiWord classes (CNiWordApplication, CNiWordDocument...). I successed to create a new CNiWordDocument with the CNiWordApplication CreateDocument() function. But when using the OpenDocument() I have error message about violation error. Must I create another objet before calling the OpenDocument() function? Is it possible to have an example of code to open a word document?
    Thank you for your help.

    I tried the following code to open a doc file in an MFC application.
    CNiWordApplication word;
    CNiWordDocument doc = word.OpenDocument("c:\\books.doc");
    This worked fine for me. I tried this with Word 2003 and Measurement Studio 7.1
    Try running one of the shipping examples. You can find examples for this under ..\MeasurementStudio\VCNET\Examples\Office\
    Hope this helps.

  • How do I open other word documents? I get this Windows cannot find 'C:Users...etc.

    Hi,
    Do you have Microsoft Word installed on your machine ? If NO, you can use Word viewer to view (& print) Word documents.

  • How do I open a word document from a url?

    We have a document server and I need to open a MSWord document that is a template for LabView to populate (using bookmarks and Connectivity Toolkit).
    I have looked at the URL builder and I can't get that to work.  The Get Document does open the document but it doesn't seam to give the correct path to the Word Get Report so it doesn't give a good link.
    I can open it in the default browser which links to Word but again there isn't any link to feed to Word Get Report.
    Am I even close?
    Thank you,
    Ben

    Closes the HTTP session
    Starts the Report Generaton Toolkit, with the file from the web as the template

  • How can I open a word-document in word?

    I want to have a link in my java-program to a word-document, but I don't know how to open the document in word from java.

    If you are using windows and word is set up as the associated program for doc files, you could use a runtime process to open it. To find the correct syntax, try to open the document through the command line and then use that command.

  • How do I open Microsoft Word documents?

    When i double-click. Word documents there is an unspecified error in opening the documents on myniPad 1.  any suggestions?

    How did you get them onto the iPad? Where are you looking at them? There is no double-clicking involved - just tap on it once, depending on the app you're in.
    If you mail them to yourself, you should be able to view them on the iPad in mail. If you want to edit them, you'll have to purchase an app such as Documents to Go.

  • How do I open a word document in pages

    I brought a document created at work on microsoft word home and am trying to work with it on my mac using pages.  But when I open it a lot of the form is in disarray and I can't work with it.  Is there a way to open a word doument in pages without losing so much text?  I am a new mac user. 

    Pages does not do Enter fields for forms so it sounds like those are simply being converted to some other space.

  • How do I open a word document on an I pad?

    I cannot open word documents in Pages on my I pad2. They are not protected. I can go no further than "open in Pages" in my e-mail account. What am I doing wrong?

    What version of Word do you have?
    If you are emailing the documents to yourself, it sounds like this should work.
    Pages for iOS: Supported file formats
    Import:
    Pages ’09 for Mac
    Microsoft Word - Office Open XML (.docx) and Office 97 or later (.doc)
    Plain Text files (.txt)
    Can you "Save As" in Word and try a different format?

  • How do I open a word document that has been downloaded onto Firefox downloads?

  • How can Tiger open Microsoft Word documents sent by e-mail?

    I recently upgraded to Tiger and use Appleworks 6, which is unable to read the Microsoft Word documents I frequently receive by e-mail. Is there any way I could read such documents, or should I get Microsoft Word? If so, which number/level would you advise? (I'm happy with Appleworks.)

    Do the problematic Word attachments end in ".doc" or in ".docx"?
    Neither AppleWorks 6 nor TextEdit will handle Microsoft's marketing-driven "improved" file format used in Mac Office 2008 / Windows Office 2007 (which is almost-but-not-really based on XML). There's a backwards-compatible option in those versions of Word to "Save As" Word 97 -2004 format (.doc). The practical solution where I work is to track down anyone sending .docx and threaten them with grievous bodily harm unless they resend as .doc and swear to never use .docx again.
    Microsoft has a converter that (allegedly) converts the new format to the vastly more common one, but that requires a previous copy of Office (Office 2004 or Office X).
    You can try the Mac OS X Dashboard widget DocX Converter instead.
