Open password protected Excel Sheet?

Hi there,
numbers seems not to support password protection- is there any workaround or maybe third party helper app for that aim?
it's not about protecting a numbers document but opening an excel sheet.
thanks for help:

In fact, the response is pure logic: you must unprotect the document from Excel
You may also download the trial version of icExcel which if I remember well proves that the protection scheme is useless.

    If they've implemented the password system correctly there probably isn't a way of getting the password at all.

    Hi Randy,
    Thank you for looking into my problem.
    I have looked into the Workbook.open property node. There is "password" on the property node. Please see attached diagrams.
    Is is the right way to do it?
    Please advise further.
    For your information, the Excel workbook and sheet 1 are password protected.
    Thanks,
    keng

  • Create a password protected excel file

    Hi everyone,
    I need to create a password-protect excel sheet using plsql.
    Please if some one could help me with this ??
    Regards,

    there is no way directly from PL/SQL to make ExcelStarting with Office 2007, Excel's default file format uses the Open XML standard (ie basically a zip archive of XML and other media files).
    You can generate such files with pure PL/SQL, but adding password security is another story...
    - Using a protection at the workbook level requires the creation of an encrypted archive.
    - Using a protection at the worksheet level is easier because the password itself is embedded (in an encrypted form) into the sheet definition.
    Prior to Office 2007, there's the "XML Spreadsheet 2003" format. It opens the way to easy XML generation but it's limited (in particular, no password support, no macro etc.).

    I have a password protected excel spreadsheet, how can I get my iPads and iPhones to read this and save it password protected?

    Documents to Go says that it, "Opens password protected Excel 97-2008 files", but does not say whether it can save them as "password protected".
    This might work for you.

  • HT3345 How do I open a password protected excel file created on a PC?  I get a message that the "file is encrypted and can't be opened"

    How do I open a password protected excel file created on a PC in numbers 09, on a MacBook Air?  I get a message that the "file is encrypted and can't be opened"

    This is actually not true; I support users who are doing this w/ Excel 2011 (v14.2.2+) for Mac and Windows users w/ Excel 2003 & 2007.  Win users are from finance dept, and who have pasword-protected various budget files.  The Mac users are (surprise) "creative" users, who enter pw to unlock and edit these budget files.
    These files are shared from a Mac server (running 10.6.8 server), and I do have an erratic problem where all users have read-only access to these pw-protected Excel files.  The manual work-around has been to copy the troublesome file(s) and confirm users have full access again.  I also do a shuffling of filenames, so that the new, working file has original file name.
    FYI: the Mac server POSIX and ACL permissions are correct, and don't appear to be source of the problem.
    It's easy an SMB file-locking issue or concurrent users trying to edit these files.  I keep reminding them that Excel is not a database!

  • Passwort protected Excel sheet

    Is there any hack to open a passwort protected excel sheet?
    Numbers reports that the excel file is encrypted.

    Hello
    As the OP asked upon Numbers, I assumed that he wasn't owning XL.
    At this time I didn't find a XL unlocker app running under MacOS.
    So it will continue to be unable to import it

  • Password-protected Excel file

    I am trying to create a connection to a password-protected Excel 2003 file.
    When I go to Create New Connection/Access/Excel(DAO)/make New Connection - I enter the filename path, choose Excel 8.0 from drop-down, and click the box for Secure Logon, and I enter the database password in the first box that un-greys and then leave the other 3 blank.
    I get the following error message : "Logon Failed. Details DAO Error Code: 0xc59 Source: DAO Workspace Description: Could not decrypt file"
    Any help appreciated.
    Thanks.

    You can use the Excel 8.0 Native Driver for Excel 97-2003 (.xls file extension) or use ODBC driver as well but the the only thing is you need to open the Excel workbook before connecting to Crystal Reports.
    Thanks,
    James

  • Recovery a password protect excel file.

    I have a password protected excel file and now it's corrupted and i can't open it. I tried to open_and_repair feature of excel2010 and different other stuffs, without success. I was wondering if there's a way to remove the password without opening the excel
    files (i know the password). In this way maybe it'll be easier to repair the file. Is there a way to do this? What other things i could try?

    Hi,
    There are several methods to recover Data in Corrupted Excel Files.
    We can use the following methods to troubleshoot problems with opening or using Excel
    files:
    Use a recovered copy of the document.
    Use the
    Open and Repair command.
    Save the file in HTML format.
    Save the file in XML Spreadsheet format.
    If a chart is linked to the corrupted file, use a macro to extract the data.

  • Acrobat XI Pro for OSX can't open password-protected pdfs created using Acrobat 9 Pro for Windows

    I am having problems opening password-protected files created on a PC using Acrobat 9 Pro.  I am running a MacBook Pro OSX 10.8.4 with Acrobat XI Pro.  When I attempt to enter the password when prompted, a dialogue box pops up saying that I've entered the incorrect password.  After many attempts, I am certain that the password entered is correct -- this is reinforced by the fact that i am able to open the same document using Mac's Preview software.
    Any assistance would be appreciated!
    Thanks.

    I was suddenly having the same problem in Acrobat XI Pro for Windows (recently upgraded to CC from Acrobat X).  For the past while I've sometimes had to use the "insert from file" tool to get a page added from another file.  I couldn't figure out why dragging sometimes would no longer work, but was too busy to go looking for a solution until tonight. 
    The solution was given by JoshTatum24 above. Switch from a scrolling page display to single page display.  Now I can drag pages between documents again.  THANK YOU Josh!
    Oh, and CORREAdmin,  it does not matter whether the hand or arrow selection tool is active, my mouse pointer is always an arrow when positioned in the page thumbnails panel.  Switching selection tools does not make a difference in dragging, but switching between scrolling and single page display definitely DOES make the difference.
