If you know the password and have a backup from the Desktop Manager software available from the Blackberry site you will need another piece to read the files.
Search for an IPD. reader and open the files. You will have to manually copy the data but it will be there.

The issue with passwords is simple. If it has one on it and you enter the wrong one multiple times the BB will delete all data. Most do have a password.
