Any way to get data from a passworded file that doesn't recognize its own password? louise 03-07-2007

 I have a certain file saved every year with the same
password. All of them open except for one year which simply
doesn't recognize its password. I don't know why - maybe a
hit a wrong key....but which wrong key, I've been unable to
figure out.

Is there any way to get at that data?

TIA

Louise

I have a password recovery program that either creates a new password
or strips out the old one. I don't know what version of Quickbooks
you are running, but if I open the file it will get converted to
2007. I can run the password function without changing the file. We
are a CPA firm and many of our clients send us files (mostly
Quickbooks) and don't let us know the password. I would be happy to
try if you want to send me the file as an attachment to an email.
Don't send a backup as the conversion will take place.

Thanks for the offer but this is Quicken Financial, not
Quickbooks. Would the same apply?

Louise, Please tell me you wouldn't seriously consider sending your
financials (in any form) to someone you haven't a clue about via an email
attachment!!!!

If you do, please copy me along with all your credit card numbers and social
security number. Please be sure to place the information that's on the
BACK of any of your credit cards in the email to me as well.
