Re: Can not open database

This means you have (a) added a password to the Admin user of your
default workgroup information (.mdw) file, or (b) used the workgroup
administrator function to "join" (select) some other workgroup
information file which has a password on the Admin user.

Sorry I can't help any more at this time. I have my own swamp to drain
of alligators right now!

HTH,
