Access 2007 Asks for User password

Guest

I was creating a new database in access 2007 a few days ago. For security i
created a password to access the datatabase and ecnrypt the database. Now,
whenever I go to do anything in access, I need to enter a user password. I
never made a user password for anything access related. The password for the
database I made is forgotten. Now I need to use access, but how do I clear
out any passwords that I didn't set in access?

Being too impatient to wait for an answer, I started digging around the
office folders. In documents and settings\all users\application
data\microsoft\office are two files. Delete those files. When access is
started again, no passwords will be required, but office will have to prepare
itself again.

Just for a final touch, I deleted the mdb file in documents and
settings\{your username}\application data\microsoft\access. All seems fine
now.
