One possible solution. I think there are others as well.
<w:UnprotectPassword>
tag, the line reads something like that: <w:UnprotectPassword>ABCDEF01</w:UnprotectPassword>
(password is already in hex-format)If you mean the one required to open the document, it depends on which version of Word was used to create it. There are several "Word password remover" programs on the internet, but Word 2003 and later use a much stronger encryption algorithm for which those will not work.
