Hello all,

I am working with Office 2003. At some point I think I was experimenting with assigning a password to a database for an online function but now I cannot do anything in MSAccess without being prompted for a logon password. I have tried to think of any logon password I might have tried and I have tried to delete any pw or password files I could find. I have tried to open files using ElcomSoft password recovery and I have tried re-installing Access. Does anyone have any idea what I can do now to be able to use Access? I don't need to use any databases that are already created and may be password protected as they would have only been for test purposes. I just want to be able to create new databases without being prompted for a logon password. (There is no windows logon password as this is a stand-alone pc used by only me.)

Thank you for any direction on this.
 
What about restoring the original system.mdw ?

Hope This Helps, PH.
