Using Access 97 and WRKGADM.EXE

I'm new here but need to administrate our databases but no one know how. No
one even knows the admin password (database developer is long gone). Is
there anyway to some way obtain complete access to the databases the
workgroups is seemingly blocking me from?

Access security can be defeated by a password cracker program you may
be able to find on the internet.
Another attack vector is that some (many?) developers implemented
security imperfectly and left holes that can be exploited.

As always: Access workgroup security is an advanced topic you should
not mess with until you first download, study, and fully understand
the Access security faq from microsoft.com
