I think I must misunderstand something. The Users Group always gets
permissions on a new database. You always have to set permissions.
The only way would be to remove permissions for the Users Group to create
new objects (code in the security FAQ).
Perhaps on converting the mdw, this got changed. I never convert a mdw,
preferring to unsecure; convert the mdb and reapply security fresh in the
new version.
You should be able to rerun the code you have that removed the Users Group
ability to create new objects while using your secure mdw.
