Accessing Unknown mdb

The security wizard has been ran on my PC, any databases opened request user
name and password. I have sample database files, which came along with a
manual, which are not secured in anyway and am unable to open these. I have
no way of having permissions added apart from opening these files on a PC
which has not had security wizard used, Or is it possible to re-set my PC so
that it does not request a password.

Hi, Joe.

You'll need to rejoin the default workgroup before opening the unsecured
databases in order to prevent being prompted for a User ID and password.
For the instructions on how to do this, please see the "How to open
databases and only be prompted for User ID and password for the secure
databases" tip on this Web page:
