Richard,

Read the Access Security FAQ on all the steps required.  But the one of
the important steps is to put admin back into the Admins group.

As I just found out the clearing of the Admin password simply removes
the prompt to enter user/password when Access loads - it does not remove
security - (its seems you are 'logged on' as the User (user) which in my
app did not have any permissions - to get the password back and the
prompt you need persmission to do so, which I no longer have - I had to
restore my mdw file to get back to where I was - anyway I think I'm
going to abandon this one and revisit when my head clears. Richard
