Hi spacewater and welcome to Windows 7 Forums
See
Administrator Account - Vista Forums This is from Vista, but it operates in exactly the same way in W7.
Basically, you have not got the command correct. It should read as follows:
net user administrator /active:yes to enable the account and
net user administrator /active:no to disable it.
