Hi, Barb.
I do not know the other users passwords- lost the paper I wrote
them on - and I would like to reset them. How can I do this??
It's easy. Sign in as as the database Administrator (which absolutely
should _not_ be the default Admin user, because your database is not secured
when the Admin user has any permissions), then select the Tools ->
Security -> User and Group Accounts... menu. Click on the "Name" combo box
and select the name of the user you want to reset the password for, then
press the "Clear Password" button to reset the password to a blank string.
Assign a password to this user as soon as possible, because anyone can open
the database as that user if they know the user name and the location of the
database and the workgroup information (MDW) files.
And yes, you can reset more than one user's password during your session.
Just select the next user's name in the "Name" combo box and press the
"Clear Password" button.
HTH.
