You can't.
That's the way Mambo & Joomla work.
You can delete him or block him but you can't demote him at least from the user interface.

And can anyone tell me how to do it in the database.

We are 10 guys building a site, and now a couple of the others dont want to be super administrators anymore.

So how do I change it in the database. I use joomla 1.0.3 and cb (last public release).

why not just delete them and have them re-register?

Almgren,

Go to your MySQL CP and open the table jos_core_acl_aro.

Next find the person that you want to change and find their aro_id # and write it down.

Next open the table jos_core_acl_groups_aro_map and find the aro_id # and edit it. Change it from 25 which is Super Admin to the group that you want to change them to. The groups and their # is below:

17 ROOT
28 USERS
29 Public Frontend
18 Registered
19 Author
20 Editor
21 Publisher
30 Public Backend
23 Manager
24 Administrator
25 Super Administrator

Hope that helps

Rick
