MDE problem

I have a database that I want to create an MDE file of. When I attempt to do this, I get an error message of Access being unable to create the MDE file. I think it may be due to the fact that I was experimenting with user-level security some time ago and found that I didn't really want to do have this security. I attempted to "remove" the security by following the Help menu instructions, but only seemed to create the same user-level security. I have also tried to import objects into a new database, but the security follows these objects. What I want to be able to do is simply create an MDE file of my database. I don't want or need user-level security. Can anyone provide some advice on how to completely remove this type of security or at least be able to create the MDE file that I want? Much appreciation in advance!!
 
Another observation:

When you create an MDE, all your code is compiled, if you have errors in your code, you won't be allowed to create an MDE.

So if you have any modules half-written that you don't use,(dead code) get rid off them or fix them.
