In Excel 2007 and newer, click on the Review tab and select Unprotect Sheet. If you see Protect Sheetinstead of Unprotect Sheet, then the worksheet is not password protected.

In Excel 2003 and earlier, follow this menu string:

Tools --> Protection --> Unprotect Sheet

If the worksheet has a password, you will need to enter the password to unprotect the worksheet. If there is no password, just leave the password section blank.

This can not be done. If the password is forgotten, there is no option USING THAT SPREADSHEET. However, you can copy and paste the data into another program and save it that way. The copy and paste is not always straightforward - if you copy and paste back into Excel, you may end up keeping the password requirement. It is dependent on what cells you select to copy, and the program you copy into. In a worst possible case, you have to copy and paste into a text editor, and retrieve the data from there.

There are protection options for cells, worksheets and the workbook in Excel. These can be turned on and off. You will find the options on the Tools menu in versions of Excel up to 2003 and on the Review Tab from versions 2007 onwards. You may need a password, depending on how it was protected initially.
