Restoring original System.mdw A2002

[A C]

Hi

Is there a way to restore or recreate the original system.mdw? I have not
adjusted any default security, in fact I have not every done any security on
this machine.

I have been having conversion/security problems and using someone elses
system.mdw seems to give the expected behaviour so I am wondering if this
file has got stuffed up somehow.

All help greatly appreciated

My understanding is that the newer versions (2K and above) will
automatically create a new System.MDW file if they are started and no
workgroup file can be found. You have to open Access by itself without
specifying an mdb file to open.

You could also install Access 2002 from the original CD.
