locked myself out

[dfd]

I have done something to lock myself (admin) out entirely
of a database I was creating. I have the One-step
Security Wizard Report. Can I do something to get back
in? I can access the backup but for some reason, it is
much smaller than the file... Can anyone help?

Well it would help if you knew why you were locked out.

I suggest you start by reading

Access security is a great feature, but it is, by nature a complex product
with a very steep learning curve. Properly used it offers very safe
versatile protection and control. However a simple mistake can lock
everyone including God out.

Practice on some copies to make sure you know what you are doing.

You copy that is smaller may be fine. Size does not count for several
reasons.

After doing the reading see if you can tell us what went bad.
