I have an iphone but don't know the passcode

   Boss lost iphone passcode.  If I have a backup of phone in itunes before the passcode was added will a restore to that backup not have the passcode?  If it still will have the passcode what is the best way to retrieve or reset this passcode?

Basically, if you have no backup, you're screwed. If you DO have a backup, it doesn't have to be one before you set the passcode, it can be the most recent one.

What if I create a backup right now and restore to it? Will the passcode be reset?

You said it doesn't have to be the one before I set a passcode.  If I do a backup now that will be the most recent one
