Lost admin details

Started with a company that has 3 sites using CMS made easy but no one knows the Admin details. Looks like the admin record was created in 2006 according to the date stamp.

I have access to mySQL admin and use the SQL command from this thread - http://forum.cmsmadesimple.org/viewtopi ... =8&t=14467 but that doesn't seem to work, Still can't login.

Is there anything else I can try?

Thanks,

Dave

Try another browser, one you didn't use for this site

I've had this type of problem before and what I do if I can get into the DB is change the email of the admin to mine, go to the log in and hit forgot password to get a link to redo it, change password, log in and there you go...

Seems to work better than trying to change the password in the DB...
