In my past experience with Access workgroup, I recall having the same type of unexpected results. It was a few years / versions ago, but I doubt if there has been much improvements. I certainly don't like setting up of it, since Access really is not a multi-user client/server product. It can be setup to handle multiple level user access, but it requires much testing. You must be braver than me for wanting to do this because I would think twice before adding workgroup to my database.
Access creates a hidden system file once a database is assigned security. I suggest making sure you note where that system file is saved. If you can, remove the workgroup so that everything is back to normal again. Then, try to establish the workgroup with you having edit privileges.
