How to modify a protected cell? (Excel 2002)

I am using a template from someone else. I want to change the formula for a particular cell but when I try to change under the Tools and the Protection menu, it keeps asking for a password I do not know.

How do I fix this?

PM me if you want code you can copy and paste into Excel that will unlock any worksheet and give you a password that works for it. This will allow you to re-protect it after. But your associate might be unhappy.
