➤ Type the following code
Sub unprotect_without_pass() Dim digit1, digit2, digit3, digit4, digit5, digit6, _ digit7, digit8, digit9, digit10, digit11, digit12 As Integer If ActiveSheet.ProtectContents Then On Error Resume Next For digit1 = 65 To 66: For digit2 = 65 To 66: For digit3 = 65 To 66 For digit4 = 65 To 66: For digit5 = 65 To 66: For digit6 = 65 To 66 For digit7 = 65 To 66: For digit8 = 65 To 66: For digit9 = 65 To 66 For digit10 = 65 To 66: For digit11 = 65 To 66: For digit12 = 32 To 126 ActiveSheet.Unprotect Chr(digit1) & Chr(digit2) & Chr(digit3) & _ Chr(digit4) & Chr(digit5) & Chr(digit6) & Chr(digit7) & Chr(digit8) & _ Chr(digit9) & Chr(digit10) & Chr(digit11) & Chr(digit12) Next digit12: Next digit11: Next digit10: Next digit9: Next digit8: Next digit7 Next digit6: Next digit5: Next digit4: Next digit3: Next digit2: Next digit1 MsgBox "One usable password is " & Chr(digit1) & Chr(digit2) & _ Chr(digit3) & Chr(digit4) & Chr(digit5) & Chr(digit6) & Chr(digit7) & _ Chr(digit8) & Chr(digit9) & Chr(digit10) & Chr(digit11) & Chr(digit12) End If End Sub
We have declared digit1, digit2, digit3, digit4, digit5, digit6, digit7, digit8, digit9, digit10, digit11, and digit12 As Integer.
The IF-THEN statement will ensure if the sheet is protected or not and if it is protected then the following operation will continue. Then we have used 12 FOR-NEXT loops for assigning 12 ranges of values to our declared digits and these loops will work as nested loops to unprotect the sheet with the help of these digits and the CHR function will convert them to strings.
A message box (MsgBox) will appear with a randomly generated password with the help of this code.
➤ Press F5.
This code will take some time to run.
The sheet will be unprotected with the following message box containing a randomly generated password. 
We can easily change the values of this dataset and convert Strawberry to Orange here. 
One thing to remember is that this code will require a lot of time to run. So, it is better to do this operation on a spare PC. Download Workbook
