I need help to recover my database which is not letting me to modify. I am the creator however I am not getting any option for log in and password dialog box. What did I do wrong? It was working three days ago and today It happend. No place I can see database privileges settings where I can modify my settings. Is there any way I can rescue this file?

 

Following message is coming up: Your access privileges do not allow  you to perform  this action

 

Thanks for your help

Hold down the Shift key (on Windows; Option on Mac) when opening the file.  FileMaker will display a login dialog.  Enter your Full Access account name and password.

 

Once you get in, go to File->File Options... and make the necessary changes in the automatic log on fields.
