Access-Security-Can't get to design view, help won't help

Access 2000, used Security Wizard to protect for new data enterer. Now
cannot get to design view to make simple changes of dates, etc. Help doesn't
help. I've tried all I can find. I really need to eliminate the Security I
imposed over a year ago.

Try holding down the shift key when you open the file.

Thanks for the suggestion. Unfortunately it does not work.

What can you see on the Access screen? Can you see the main database
window that lists all your forms/reports/queries? Is it just the
toolbar with "Design Mode" button you can't see or you can't get into
the main window at all?
