I recently moved some access databases from one server to
a new server. The security will not let me into the
desigin of the tables forms and reports etc...

It does not recongnize me as the administrator when I try
to change the permissions.

I am an administrator on the server.

How can I fix this?

Thanks in advance
 
Being a windows administrator is nothing to do with being an Access database
administrator.

I assume that the databases in question have been secured using Access user
level security? If so, you need to ensure that the moved databases use the
same workgroup information file (MDW) that was used to secure them
originally. No >other< workgroiup files will do(such as, whatever workgroup
files are on the server to which you moved the db's)

HTH,
