changing Admin password

Hi,

This is probably a basic question but I am having a
problem changing the User Name: Admin password.

In the book I have and in the MS Access Security FAQ it
tells you to set a password for the Admin user.

I always get the same message when I enter a new passord.

This message comes up " Cannot update. Database or object
is read only."

Does anyone know why this happens and how I can create the
password.

Thanks
 
Maybe check that your database (MDB) file, and the relevant workgroup
information (MDW) file, do not have the windows "read only" attribute set.
Find each file, right-click, select Properties, & un-tick the Read Only
checkbox if currently ticked.

HTH,
TC
