Access disables content

Topic

I have moved a couple of apps to new computers and now when Access starts I get popups warning that “certain content has been disabled…” etc. How do I get rid of these irritating messages — they didn’t appear on the original computers.

Chuck,

Go to the Trust Center in Access and set the directory where you loaded the Access database and set it as trusted. You’ll have to do this on each computer.

Alternatively, you can generate a certificate to sign your VBA code and then install the certificate on each of the machines in question. Then any code you generate in the future and sign with that certificate will be accepted by those computers automatically. More Info

May the Forces of good computing be with you!

I should have said it work with Access 2007. However, where do I find the trusted site settings with Access 2003. I can’t find it anywhere.

Same problem as in the first post to this session Upon startup I get a couple of pop up windows with security warnings. I’d like to get rid of them.

Look at Tools…Macro …Security

I think you will find the Security Level is set to High. Change it to Medium.

Thanks John, I had to reduce it below Medium, but it worked.
