    "Open File - Security Warning"

    How do I get rid of the generic Windows "Open File - Security Warning"
    that appears when I try to open a database that resides on another PC
    on my home network? This is not the annoying macro security warning -
    I have my macro security set to low. The warning I am describing only
    appears when a database on another machine is opened.

      Thanks for the reply Ian. Has it been your experience that IE7 is
      causing this? Another obscure problem that I have noticed since
      installing IE7 that I have previously posted on this group (no replies
      though) is that if I have one Access database open and then open
      another by double clicking the file in Explorer, the second instance
      of the Access application opens immediately but then there is a 5
      second or so lag before the second database actually opens.

      If the second database is opened from a shortcut that specifies the
      path to the Access exe as well as the file path, it opens
      immediately.

      The way I have gotten around the problem is to install a utility
      called "AccVer" that associates different versions of Access files
      with their respective version of Access. With this utility installed,
      the second and subsequent databases open immediately.

        This happens to systems w/o IE7. Its not specifically an IE7 issue.

          So does anyone know the cause and how to stop the message appearing?
