I have an Access database that has security set on it. I need to remove the
security so that I do not have to log into it.
 
Log in as a user that's a member of the Admins Group.

Give full permission to all objects (don't forget the database object) to
the Users Group.

Go into Tools, Security, Workgroup Administrator, and ensure that you join
the standard system.mdw that ships with Access.

Close Access, and then reopen it. Create a new database and import all
objects from your secure database. This new mdb is unsecured.
 
THANKS! that did it.
