WordPerfect® 5.1 for DOS

Problem

Solutions: Novell/WordPerfect Customer Support is often asked to provide a utility that will detect document passwords that were assigned by users using the WordPerfect Password feature. Such a utility does not exist for Novell/WordPerfect representatives to distribute. By creating this type of utility, Novell would be defeating the very purpose for which the Password features was intended (Document Security).

As stated in the WordPerfect 5.1 Reference manual; ". . . . WordPerfect Corporation will not unlock a document for you. There are several products on the market that have been developed by other companies which you can use to decode a password on a locked document. Contact your local dealer for more information".
