Is this a split application? If so you should be able to recover it from the FE

Please how do i do that, its VBA access based application

Assuming it is split (you haven't said)

1. open the FE - hold down the shift key if necessary to stop code from running)
2. if you can see the linked tables then
3. open the msysObjects table (or use a query - SELECT * FROM msysObjects)
4. look in the database column - you should find the password there

If you don't see the linked tables then the alternative method for connecting the FE to the BE tables is using VBA at runtime, so you will need to look in your vba modules for something that makes the connection

The database you attached to post #1 is encrypted with a file password. That isn't what you described

Unless you can remember the file password, your only hope is to buy password recovery software which will try every possible password combination in succession until it finds the correct one. If the password is a reasonable length, that will take months or years to complete.
