Invalid Password

J

Jeri Baker

I created a database in Microsoft Access 2000 and used the
Security Wizard to set-up passwords.

Now all my databases are asking for a password to log-in
with a user name. None of the user names and passwords
work including "Admin".

HELP! I've tried all forms of my password in the vent I
made a "typo" entering it but nothing has worked.

When you ran the Security Wizard did you create a user name? if so try
logging on with that user name and a blank password. Otherwise, log on as
the Admin user, using the password you gave to the Admin user.

It's my bet that Access is not using the Workgroup you created and has
defaulted to System.mdw

Try logging in as follows...

Username: Admin
Password: (Blank)

Either way, please post result to let us know how you go.

I tried Admin with blank and it didn't work. I printed
the Wizard Security Report with all the workgroup
information for the secured database.

Will this report help me figure out what I did wrong?

Thanks!

Yes. I printed the Wizard Security Report and the User
Name is under my name and my company's name. I shows all
my secured objects, groups and users. Will this report
help me figure out what the heck I did?

Thanks.
