Cannot open blank db

Hello All

I have a PC which was until yesterday on a network, with its own A97
front-end SECURED db. The backend was (still is) on the fileserver.

Today I have taken this PC off the network, but I want to use it as a
standalone. However, I cannot seem to use it to open even a new, blank db -
it keeps asking for secured.mdw, which is the workgroup information file
that was created when I secured the main db 2 years ago.

How do I tell this standalone PC to (in the military jargon) 'stand-down':
that it is no longer expected to access the secured db, and can therefore
forget about secured.mdw?

Hope someone can help.

Rejoin the standard system.mdw. Start, Run, and type wrkgadm.exe Then
click on Join and join system.mdw. It usually is located in the windows
system folder, however you could do a search first to find it.
