I have created a rather simple database. I set up user and group
security. I was in Access for hours yesterday with no problem. This
morning I try to get in and it says I do not have permissions to
contact administrator or creator to give permissions. Is there a way
to get in and remove the security settings I placed so I don't have
this issue?

You must not be set to use the security file you created. You need to
use a short cut to your database as below so that when you open your
database it uses the Workgroup Security file you just created.

"C:\Program Files\Microsoft office\OFFICE11 MSACCESS.EXE" "n:\data
\Database.mdb" /WRKGRP "n:\data\Secured.mdw"

Look our for the word wrap.

Hope that helps
