Hi there,
First off, sorry for the delay- your posts were getting moderated as potential spam and only just noticed it to approve now. You should be able to post from here on out!
There are two ways a database is protected in HanDBase. If you are using the Encryption feature to lock the database, there is no way to get the password or get access to the database without knowing the password. That's part of the security of the design itself!
However, if you are using Password protection, you can actually see the password if you open the database with a binary editor. You'll have to scan through the first few pages of text but at some point in the file there is a password stored and hopefully it will be obvious to you when you see it among the scrambled mess of binary data!
As for getting a binary editor, here is one for Windows:
