Removing password from processing table???

[Studio 1 Productions]

It is not big secret to removing a password when the processing table was saved with ABE=ASCII.  That we all know.

What I did was figured out how to remove the password from the processing table when was NOT saved with ABE=ASCII.  You will need a Hex Editor or a program that allows you to look at a file in hex mode.  The PDF file I wrote up on this has a link to a free Hex Editor that I used.

I know John Esak had Docgen that could remove/bypass the processing table’s password, so I knew it could be done.  I had contacted John, but he couldn’t remember exactly how he did it.

So I set about studying the processing table with the hex editor program and figured out how to get rid of the unknown or forgotten password.

The are several steps involved and you MUST follow them exactly or it will not work.   

Here is a link to a page on my site that has a PDF on how to remove the password from a processing table that was NOT saved with ABE=ASCII.

Why put it in a PDF?  Because, I needed to use colored fonts to show and highlight area’s of the processing table in hex.

I figured this out about 2 years ago and I have only shared this info with Larry Hoover who is on this list.   I am not a member of the list, but I do read the archives every few days, as I still run filePro 5.00.14 on a Windows 7 network.
