   Hi, I have just upload WP on to my hosting sever and all went ok and it installed, so I then followed the tutorial on this site and changed my username and password for my login to wp instead of the usual "admin" and the email sent pw. But I must of misspelled it I think, because I can remember the UN and PW i would have used (I have three I always use). Now when I go to my blog and try to login to my admin I I'm shutout.

   I have went to my ftp and downloaded all my wp files to open them with my text editor but I don't know if I can find my password and username within these files? If I can where do I look.

   Thanks for the help in advance and your patience:-)

   Whooami, I did the second option, "going into the database," as described on the FAQ page, and I am still unable to login. I've tried all the other steps as well; none of them seem to fix the problem. Any ideas?

   phpmyadmin is the way to find your username. It says it plain as day. The password is usually encrypted but the username is extremely easy to locate. I think it is under wp-user.
