Removing Password from MS Access VBA Project

Sometimes we forget the VBA project password. However, when we need to code in VBA project, we have to remove the password and put new password.

To remove the password please follows steps:

Step-1: Open the Access database file by any HEX Editor software. I personally use HxD Hex Editor2.2.0.0

Step-2: After opening the file you will see like a below window.

Step-3: Now search DPB= and replace the B by x from DPB=  (Example DPx=) and save it.

Step-4: Now open the database and you will see some message box. Just click ok.

Step-5: Now go to VBA project to provide a new password and save it.

[NB: I have checked it in MS Office Access 2010 and worked perfectly.]
