Password question

We have a customer data base in an Apache Office spreadsheet.Our computer was shorted out by a Utility company surge, so we replaced it.Now the program is requiring a password.   We never used a password before (don't have one).
How can we solve this problem? 
Thank you,

The "program" asks for a password? Which program? I think it's the 
spreadshet which has been protected with a password.

But in general: The reason to use a password is, to prohibit access 
without password and just belive, it's defintliy not easy to crack such 
a system. (What would the sense of such a protection be, if you could 
crack it in minute?)

There are crackers using different ways to try passwords, but I've no 
expirience using them.
