Why are you surprised at that? Any member of the Admins group of the
workgroup file which was used to create the secured database, will have
(or be able to acquire) full access to every object in that database.
This applies to any copies of that file, as well. So it is "working as
designed", if I understand your description correctly.

HTH,
TC
