Unlock the Form protection of Word documents

In the case you want to edit a word document that has been created using forms and these forms are locked-down, here are alternatives to bypass thi protection:

With Word versions previous to 2007, it was this easy:
1) Open the word document
2) Hit Shift+Alt+F11 to open the Script Editor
3) Search for the "Password: field (using Ctl+F)
4) Replace the 8 characters by 00000000
5) Save the file from the script editor and you're done

With Word 2007 and later versions, here is another tric
1) Open a new blank document in word
2) Click Insert --> Object --> Text from file
3) You can now edit the text
3) Save the document

Finally here is another option:
1) Open the file in Word
2) Save the document in HTML format
3) Open the html document with IE
4) Click on View --> Source - This will open a windows with a view similar to the Script Editor
5) Search for the "Password: field (using Ctl+F)
6) Replace the 8 characters by 00000000
7) Save the file and you're done
