Default A simple way to crack VBA password in Excel file

Unbelivibale, but I found a very simple way that really works!

Do the follwoing:

1. Create a new simple excel file.
2. In the VBA part, set a simple password (say - 1234).
3. Save the file and exit.
4. Open the file you just created with a simple editor.
5. Copy the lines starting with the following keys:

CMG=....
DPB=...
GC=...

6. with a simple editor (again), open the excel file you don;t know
the VBA password for,
and paste the above copied lines from the dummy file.
7. save the excel file and exit.
8. Now, open the excel file you need to see the VBA code in. The
password for the VBA code
will simply be 1234 (as in the example I'm showing here).

Simply works...

Enjoy!

AND I MISSED TO INFORM-- Still i went ahead and opened the excel file
in xvi32 and copied the whole thing and opned MY OLD FILE WHICH I
WANTED TO FIND THE VBA CODE. The rude shock was it GOT OVER WRITTEN
BY THIS SIMPLE EXCEL FILE. LUCKILY I DO HAVE A COPY OF THE
OVERWRITTEN FILE. So pls give me a bit more elaborate steps.
