Cannot successfully create a new database...

What did I do to my Access configuration? When I attempt to create a new
database I am prompted with a Logon dialog box, asking for a username and
password. I want to make a new database unassociated with any security but
when I cancel out of that dialog box the opportunity to create a new database
goes away also.

Thanks,
George
 
It looks like your are logged onto some Access security file (.mdw) instead
of the default system.mdw. Search for the file called system.mdw, run the
work group administrator program under (Tools - Security) and Join the
system.mdw group.
