I'm trying to set up a secure Access db. When I get to the point where
I am supposed to delete the Admin group after creating my new group I
get an error message saying it can't perform this operation. What is
the problem?
Thanks

I think you mean the Admins Group, or maybe the Admin User.  You cannot
delete the Admin User.  The steps you are following likely say remove the
Admin User from the Admins Group (not delete it).

There must always be at least one member of the Admins Group.  Admin is that
user, so you have to create your own user to be a member of the Admins
Group, and then you can remove the Admin User.
