Well, I would be very surprised if a "debug on"
statement within your processing table had anything to
do with setting a processing password.  I asume you
mean that you exited the *cabe editor (define
processing) by closing the window instead of saving
and exiting properly?  I can't see how that would
effect a processing password either.

The only way that it could get there that I am aware
of is if it was created on a system that had a site
password.  Did you set it accidentally on your utility
menu?  Also, if you have a 4th line in your FPPATH
file, or you are using the PFSP variable - these would
create passwords in your processing when you save.

Wait a minute, I just realized something.  You
probably have had a site password for some time, but
did not realize it because your system was not asking
you to enter it from *cabe.  Perhaps it is just *clerk
that is asking you for it now because you have the
"debug on" statements.  Just create a small new
processing table the regular way without a debug
statement and then take a look at it in word.  I bet
that it will have a site password.  I believe you can
remove it by just deleting the 4th line in your FPPATH
file.
