Can not open a password protected xlsx file
I have an xlsx file that has been created with Microsoft Office Word and password protected. After that, I started open and edit it with LO 6.0.1. When I opened it in LO it asked me for the password only for the first time. After that, it never asked me again when I open the file.
Today I have used the operation "Save As" and indicated to protect the file with a password. However, after that whenever I try to open the file and give the password the LO Calc always says that the password is wrong and I can not open it. But the password is correct.
I have already updated my LibreOffice to 6.4.2.2 version but the problem remains.
Any help with this problem? Since unfortunately, I do not have any copy of that file :(
Thanks in advance for your help.

Dear Mike Kaganski,
Thanks a lot for your precious help. In fact, your solution was the right one since my password has 23 characters. I simply inputted the first 15 has suggested and magically it opened immediately. I have already tried it in LO 6.4 with a password bigger than 15 characters and the problem have already been corrected has said.
Thanks a lot. You can imagine but you saved my day. Thanks for all the other people that gave me other tips too.
