Hi,

I'm busy writing an application using Delphi 5 to use an existing MS Access
database at work.

I'm writing this on my homecomputer where I created my own Access tables to
work with them first before trying on the rather large existing tables at
work.

My problem is that every time I try to activate the MS Database using the
TTable and TDatasource components, I get a popup window that asks me to
enter the username and login.
I already tried several passwords that I used on my computer but I doesn't
give me access. The problem is that I never used neiter my Access program or
the BDE engine. So, I never entered any passwords for them.

Do I have to reinstall anything?

Tx,
Wim.
