I inherited a database that has not had maintenance since 2008.   I discovered that nobody knows the Admin password, although we have a couple live users that have Admin privileges, including me.

In addition there is an application user Orcauser where the password is forgotten but is required on each and every table for application access.  Now the backup seems to be working fine on the server, but if I take those files to put them on my laptop and try to do a backup and restore, I get a requirement to enter a password for a user table.  Of course no one knows what that would be.

Is there any way to reset the Admin password?
If there is a password on a table is there a way to determine what user the system wants a password for?

Any advice on how to proceed would be appreciated.

Just a clarification:  support@elevatesoft.com is the proper support email
