    Remove or Change Password on database COPY using .Net application

    I have a production database that is password protected. Through my
    application, I want to provide the users with a COPY of this database,
    including RI, without a password or at least a different password than the
    production database has. Is this possible? If so, how? I am using an
    Access 2000 database with Jet Engine 4.0 and Visual Studio 2005.

    You should be able to create a copy and then run SQL DDL (using ADO.NET) to remove the password. See
    the Share-Level Security section in the following article:
