ActiveX component to retrieve password

This is a small ActiveX component that allows you to retrieve the database password of every password-protected mdb file that created with Microsoft Access 95/97/2000/XP or with Jet Database Engine 3.0/4.0 .
You can use this component in all development tools that supports ActiveX components, including Visual Basic, Visual C++, Microsoft Access, Delphi, and other development tools.

Limitations:

• Passwords of Access 2000/XP files cannot be recovered if their length is longer than 18 characters.
• This ActiveX DLL can only reveal the main database password. It cannot recover the user-level passwords.
  

In order to start using this ActiveX DLL, you have to register it on your machine. You can use the regsvr32 utility for registering the Access PassView ActiveX component. In order to do it, type the following command: regsvr32 accesspv.dll

The Access PassView ActiveX package includes a Visual Basic sample that demonstrates how to use this component. You can watch it by opening the accesspv.vbp project.
