I just got an excel VBA app to make changes to, however, there is a password 
on the code/project and no one knows the password to access the code. Is 
there a way (without any hacking tools, can't use them in the enterprise) to 
remove the password so I can access the code and make changes to the app?

I'm running excel 2007. I really don't want to have to rewrite the app for a 
few changes because no one has the password to the thing

There are several free downloads that can crack the VBA password (Google "VBA 
password recovery). Would one of these work?

There is a way to "extract" the code without any password cracking involved.
However - this is usually done if the code is not too long codes.
If your size of your code fills that condition - I'm willing to do it for you.
The code will be returned to you as "TEXT" and you'll have to paste it into 
a new WB after copying all the sheets from the locked WB to the ne one.
