Security Wizard

[Sprowler]

Help! I opened the security wizard and decided I really didn't need it. So
I cancelled it. However, it created another file for me. So now what do I
do? I can't access it from the file server because it says I don't have
rights. I do have access from my start menu. Not sure how to best proceed.
Any suggestions? Thank you!

Check in the folder where your mdb is located. There should be a file with
the same name, but a bak extension (this is the unsecured backup). Rename
it to have a mdb extension.

You should be able to open this file. If you are still asked for a
username/pwd, then you are joined by default to the secure mdw the wizard
created. If that is the case, open Access, Tools, Security, Workgroup
Administrator, and rejoin the standard system.mdw that ships with Access -
it will not ask for a username/pwd.
