Question : How to get past VBA module password in Access DB with workgroup security

I need to get past the VBA module login.  I've tried VBA password bypass and password recovery tools with no luck.  I think the problem with these tools is that they need to be pointed at a file that contains VBA but will not work when pointed at the shortcut (required for workgroup security).  When I point the recovery tools at the mdb file I get the standard error message that Access throws up when not using the shourtcut with the wrkgrp switch.  

How can I get around the VBA password?  This is an Access 2002 db.
Thanks,

Answer : How to get past VBA module password in Access DB with workgroup security

Sorry ... didn't mean to disparage you, but those are the guidelines (and we have no way of verifying whether you actually own the dbs, or whether you actually are a sysadmin, etc ... no harm intended).

Access security is "session-based" ... thus, if you join a workgroup on a machine, then you recovery programs may be okay. To join the workgroup that was used to secure the db, you run the Workgroup Administrator ... how you do this depends on the version of Access (2002+ - open Access, no database, then click Tools - Security - Workgroup Administrator, then find and join the workgroup used ... A97 or 2000 - do a filesearch for "wrkgadm.exe" then run this and join the workgroup).After doing this, try running your recovery programs again. If this doesn't do it, then you'll have to find the developer or someone familiar with the program to provide you with specific login instructions.

Note that after doing this, you'll want to rejoin the workgroup that the machine was originally joined to ... thus you probably should note the full path of the original workgroup file ...
