Open a password protected database where the Display Navigation Pane has been disabled

[LD1010]

How can I open a password protected database where the Navigation Pane was disabled. If I hold down the Shift key while opening the database the enter password box comes up. I enter the password and the database opens but the Navigation Pane remains disabled.

Any help would be appreciated.

I can't remember if you need to hold down the SHIFT key AFTER entering the password WHILE pressing the ENTER key. Anyway, take a look at the following two links and see it they help:

When all else fails, manipulate the data.

It's the shift key.

Thanks trevil620. You were right on. After entering the password hold down the SHIFT key while hitting enter.
