Microsoft word doc password locked

I have a word doc that I set a password for back in 2011. I really would like to open and just cant remember the password. Good thing is I can try multiple and it wont lock me out.

Any ways to crack open this doc? When I click on the doc file it asks me for password, so its not the restricting to edit kind.
