Opening databases in Access


Recommended Posts

I've been trying to open a few databases in MS Access in order to get a better understanding of Access as well as tweak the data quickly, but they seem to be password protected.

 

For TheWho87's databases, would you be willing to give out the password? Or is there any particular reason it's locked? I'm happy to do what I can to help, if it's even possible to edit the data in Access...

If you access the file and edit things before playing a save, it can lead to errors and issues Adam can't fix. For that reason, it's highly suggested not to try and edit the data in Access itself.</p><p> </p><p> The password protection is created by TEW itself not by individual mod makers. <img alt=":)" data-src="//content.invisioncic.com/g322608/emoticons/smile.png.142cfa0a1cd2925c0463c1d00f499df2.png" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png"></p>

<p>Highly advisable you use the provided editor in TEW since the in-game editor provides human readable values for the data you can edit in a safe manner.</p><p> </p><p>

Most if not all games make heavy use of integers and boolean values for game data that it wouldn't be very obvious what does what, and would be extremely volatile editing in it's raw form if you don't know what you're doing.</p>
