Removing Security

[Frank]

Typical of me...I was messing around with the Security
Wizard to see how it works, I somehow enabled the entire
application as "secure" and requires a logon every time,
no matter what DB I want to open.

Please someone tell me how to "undo" what I did? I tried
to delete the "Secured.mdw" file, but then it won't even
let me start MS Access at all.

Please help...

The wizard not only created a new workgroup file, but it made that file
your default. You need to use the Workgroup Administrator utility to
change your default back to the original System.MDW file and then you
should no longer be prompted. Look for WRKGADM.EXE on your system.

Thank you Rick! I ran WRKGADM.EXE and changed my default
back to System.mdw.

Thanks again!
