I have secured my database. Descided I didn't like it secured. Delete the
files but am now left with secured.mdw. Access complains when I delete this.
I would like no security on all subsequent DB's. How do I remove this
secured.mdw file?

I thought Tools>Security>Security Wizard would be the answer,
I used the security wizard create the security in the first place. Access
does not ask me to login in on start up/creation of new DB's. And looking
under Tools>Security>Uses.. the current user is "Admin".

however the problem is complicated by the fact that Somehow the admin login
id is not part of the admin group.

However I have other users who are. How do I change users??


In summary:
I want to remove all security and security.mdw
I cannot because "admin" user doesn't have the correct rights
How do I change users to acheive the above?

Thanks is advance
 
"on all subsequent databases"? You should simply rejoin the default
"system.mdw" workgroup if you would like to use it for subsequent databases.
To use any secured databases, simply include the "secured.mdw" file in a
shortcut so Access knows to use it with files which require it.

I think the OP has used system.mdw as the means to secure his app.
