Remarks
By default, the DefaultUser property is set to "admin" and the DefaultPassword property is set to a zero-length string ("").
User names aren't usually case-sensitive; however, if you're re-creating a user account that was deleted or created in a different workgroup, the user name must be an exact case-sensitive match of the original name. Passwords are case-sensitive.
Typically, you use the CreateWorkspace method to create a CdbWorkspace object with a given user name and password. However, for backward compatibility with earlier versions and for convenience when you don't implement a secured database, the Microsoft Jet database engine automatically creates a default CdbWorkspace object when needed if one isn't already open. In this case, the DefaultUser and DefaultPassword property values define the user and password for the default CdbWorkspace object.
For this property to take effect, you should set it before calling any DAO methods.
