Remove password of .mdb file in office2007, created in access97


So I have an access mdb file that was originally create using Access 97/Office 2003. Since I have recieved a new work that has 2007 Office installed. The file extension of the access database is still mdb + password protected. I opened it in 2007 and used Accesspasview to get password and got also. But I am unable to remove password , I want database to save in new .accdb format so that i can edit and open it in Office/Access2013 and later versions.

I know the passwor, but unable to remove it. I am using access2007.
