The Kid
Am using XP Professional and Office 2003. As the sole user of my computer I
am also the administrator (although I never put in a password, just hit the
enter button to bypass that prompt). Also, I am a computer user; don't build
them; just want them to work!
I need to do a mail merge to make labels (I usually import the data files
into MS Word) but the access security locks me out and tells me to go find
the administrator to authorize use of the data files. I need help figuring
out how to access the Access files for the merge.
Also, is it possible to make the security stuff go away permanently? I
already tried uninstalling Office 2003 and reinstalling but the security
question did not come up and the lock is still in place. With all my
struggles, I also lost the ability to open up the data file in Access but the
Sept. 30th "Locked Out" discussion in this thread helped me at least create a
backup that will open for me but I have to go find the program (Access) to do
that. The desktop shortcup created by the wizard for the data file is gone,
no idea where.
Can anyone help with any of these questions?
