Log in with an account that gives you full access.

You can't. That's what passwords are for. Start with a new file and
build your own file.

I don't have any experience with it but
www.lostpassword.com/filemaker.htm has a program you can purchase for
$39 which will recover Filemaker passwords in all versions up to 11

It's a pretty inexpensive way to learn a valuable lesson. Keep copies
of your database passwords, actually any important passwords, in a
safe and secure place.

In this group we refrain from advice that might be used illegally, like
cracking, hacking and reverse-engineering some-one elses solutions. We can't
stop you giving this advice, but please consider your reply to these kind of
questions.

Keep well, Hou je goed, Ursus

Please note: All passwords in FM versions above 6 are stored in an
unrecoverable hash string. This CANNOT be "recovered." Ever.

What password crackers do is replace the hash with one they know
corresponds to a password they supply. They write into the file. They
may or may not write correctly, which often introduces corruption. In
other words, you cannot trust or continue to develop such files going
forward, so using such a cracker on a file you want to keep and work on
is useless.

The only legitimate use for such crackers is to get data out of a file,
assuming you own the data. All other uses are illegal, or
counterproductive, to say the least. Don't spend the $39.

This is excellent advice. Every client I have, I've stored the
passwords somewhere physical. Computers come and go. Files corrupt or
don't get transferred.

Passwords in frequent use and personal passwords, I have a database for
that. Whatever. I've found that even if you're currently working in the
files every day and think you'll never forget the clever pwd you
thought up, in 5 years you will not remember. Oops.

Thanks Lynn. I was not aware of that, it sounds as though that
procedeure could cause some corruption to a file. I do the same as you
so will never have a use for such a program.

Ursus, when you say "we" refrain ... should I assume you have a mouse
in your pocket?

A white poodle as a matter of fact :-)
