SUMMARY

If you use the Secret Agent tool to create a password for a document, pictures and text are not intelligible when you open the document later. To see the document correctly, you must supply the correct password. If you forget the password, Creative Writer provides a way to decode the document.

MORE INFORMATION

To decode a document for which you have forgotten the password, follow these steps:

  1. Open the document.
  2. Choose Secret Agent.
  3. Type Detective McZee to the rescue.
  4. Press down and hold CTRL+SHIFT and click OK (Windows) or press down and hold COMMAND+SHIFT and click OK(Macintosh).
