Is it possible to get function or script code from a protected excel document?
If so, how do I go about doing this?
The file is .xls and was likely created in office 2003
for 2007 you can always buy third party software to unlock the VBA Project.
Or, you can do it yourself. I only know the very messy way - rename your file from .xlsm to .zip, and accept windows telling you this may cause bother. Then, go into your new zip, and you will find your .bin file (default name is vbaProject.bin unless the original author changed it). Copy it, and paste it somewhere else to keep the original document intact. Then, open up the bin file in notepad ++ and patiently scour your way through until you find your code. Even if the project is password protected, it will all be in here, but may require a little patience.
It depends on what version excel document it is. The older excel documents (2003) can easily be accessed even if they are encrypted, but encrypted 2007 excel documents are much more difficult to open if you have forgotten the password.

Why doesn't MS Excel allow renaming an unsaved file while sending it over email?
Let me explain it properly -
I have a data set copied currently and have to send it over to another person. I opened MS Excel using shortcuts
Win+R
Enter "Excel"
Ctrl+V
Choose option to send via email
Enter recipients
Click "Send"
Looks something like below -
Is there anyway I can rename "Book2.xlsx" to say "My_Fruit_Order.xlsx" right from here itself?
Please rectify if I'm being ignorant here. Otherwise, will be glad to see MS implement this thingy.
You cannot rename an attachment that is already attached to an email before sending it.
Here is the Microsoft Documentation.
To work around this problem, rename the file before you attach it to the e-mail message.
If you would like to achieve it, then there are other addons that you could use like kutools.

I am just preparing a doc file. i am using LibreOffice in ubuntu.
The name of the file is
WebApplicationRequirements.doc
When i am saving that in a drive, an extra file shows in the hidden file.
The name is
.~lock.WebApplicationRequirements.doc#
When i am pushing that in a remote repository it is including that hidden file. If i delete that fill will it harm the original file. And why it is happening?
As the name suggests, that hidden file is a lock file used internally by LibreOffice. To prevent multiple LibreOffice application instances from writing to the same file at the same time. It's not generally harmful to delete that file. It should get re-created again next time you open that file again in LibreOffice.
You haven't indicated what remote repo system you are using. But also note that most repro systems (e.g. git) have the concept of ignore files which allow you to configure which files to ignore during commit. If your repro system has that you probably want to add a rule to ignore the lock files so that they are not committed/pushed.

Is there any way to force Excel 2013 to open files within the same window instance?
I am extremely disappointed that Microsoft is forcing it's users to open multiple instances for every workbook they open. Why on earth would they take away this feature?
This is not making us more productive. Why don't we just start opening a new browser instance every time we visit another website?
I'm constantly opening CSV files throughout the day. I would prefer to have this consolidated to a single instance of excel and the option to drag a tab away from the window when I need a new instance. Microsoft please fix this!
Anyhow, if anyone knows of a hack to work around this I'd like to know.
Thanks in advance!
Apparently, according to Microsoft, this is done by design. They are so excited by this feature that they have even created this blog article to show it off and explain why it's so great.
Unfortunately, there's no way easy or free way to achieve what you want, at least I'm not aware of one.
However, there's a website called "Extend Office" (I have no affiliation with them what-so-ever) that sells various Excel add-ins. One of the add-ins is called Office Tab, which seems to be able to do what you want. There's a trial version for 30 days after which you need to buy. Up to you if you want to go for it or not, I merely point out its existence and I'm in no way endorsing or discouraging it (I've not even tried it!).

I have a excel file and set a password by 'bashing' at they keyboard..
I was basically testing it and pressed everything.. Got me thinking, Is they a way to crack/remove the password?
I'm not on about just a sheet, I mean the actual file..
When I click to open the xlsx file a pop up box comes up asking for the password.. Easy way around it?
No there isn't. An xlsx (which is essentially a zip file) uses a far superior encryption model than earlier Excel formats (e.g. xls). In short, the whole file is encrypted as opposed to a password hash being embedded in an otherwise readable file.
Your only hope is to write a brute force cracker that mimics the bashing behaviour you describe. (e.g. unlikely that you have mixed case etc.).

I created a documentation site on Google Sites, and now I have to hand in that as a printed Document. I need all pages in the site converted to PDF to take to a printer, and I'm now realizing that GDocs has no "export as document" option. How can I accomplish this?
Not really a programming question, but you could install something like CutePDF and print the document directly to PDF. This software basically adds a new printer driver and asks you for a file name, producing a PDF rather than a printed hard copy.
If I log into my google documents and select a document, then a "more activities" -> Export then I can store the doc locally.
Perhaps the wording don't match up, I use a swedish gui, and just did a direct translation...
Well you could just click
ctrl+P
this would run the print command and then click on "save as pdf"?
I guess this should do it if I understand your question correctly.
