Hi @amit -- there are several applications you can buy to break into a password for Microsoft Office. Many however do not work very well and are a bit "shady" if you know what I mean.

For recovering Microsoft Word passwords I use Passware. They've been around for years (10 years+) and it's always worked well for me when I needed to recover word or excel. So if you want to do something more than just MS Word, I would suggest getting the Password Kit.

The only issue you need to be aware of is the Passwords used in Office 2010 are not simple to recover and if you used a long and strong password with mixed case and special characters.... you might be out of luck. If it was a simple dictionary word, you should be fine.
