Default Recovering/Removing a Password to Modify PPAM Code


I have an add-in written for PowerPoint 2007 that generates an error with the 2010 version. I get an 'object not found' error when PowerPoint starts. I modified the debug key in the registry in order to view the code. Unfortunately, it is password protected. I tried one of the free on-line VB password crackers, but it did not work. I'm fairly sure that the object is a calendar function that offers an option to select a date from a pop-up calendar, rather than entering it in a box. I'm not sure why Microsoft changed it from one version to another (why do they do stuff like this?), or exactly how to fix it, but I need to get it open first. Any ideas? (Yup someone created this and moved on without telling anyone what the password was. And now, I can't get hold of him.)
