RE: Can't open my .mdb

Tech Tip: Click here to run a free scan for Windows Errors and optimize PC performance

Michael, Here are the results

1.Done

2.Done

3.Done

4.No Dialog

5. The workgroup path is given as C:\Documents and
Settings\dennist685\Application Data\Microsoft\Access\System1.mdw

The name of the Workgroup Administrator is Dennis Turner. This is my name
on both my msdn subscription and on Windows XP. However the only user name
when windows boots up is dennist685, which is my user name in all forums, all
email accounts and everywhere else.

So before I go farther, given the above information, do you wish to modify
your suggestions above? I don't want to make a mistake.
