Yes, I used the change username form and typed nothing in the new username field and clicked change username and it changed it. It just deleted the administrator username and replaced it with nothing.
I attempted it to edit it but i couldnt, i cant even login with it anymore. I went into the web-based db and accessed the author tbl and tried to edit the username but that also failed after i click to submit the change. The error occurs is:
 This is how the administrator username appears in the memberlist now:

Javascript checking should have meant that you are unsable to do this. You will have to edit the database manually by hand now, to re-enter a username for the admin account. ------------- https://www.webwiz.net/web-wiz-forums/forum-hosting.htm" rel="nofollow - Web Wiz Forums Hosting https://www.webwiz.net/web-hosting/windows-web-hosting.htm" rel="nofollow - ASP.NET Web Hosting |

If I download MS SQL server and access the db with EM, can I change it that way? or do I have to download the whole db and make the change then upload it? ------------- "When it gets dark enough, you can see the stars" -Charles A. Beard |
