Outlook VB Security Issue

B

Bret Margetis

Hi There

I have a problem between a database program and Outlook.
We are using Windows XP, Office XP, everything is service
packed.

Specifically, when we use the email function from the
database program, it prompts as follows:

"A program is trying to automatically send email on your
behalf. Do you want to allow this? If this is unexpected,
it may be a virus ......" Yes, No, Help."

The problem here is that when performing an email to
potentially several hunderd or even a couple of thousand
people, waiting 5 seconds each time to be able to press Y
is a major drama.

Is there any easy way around this problem?

Apologies if this is the wrong forum for this question.

Regards

Bret

It's the correct forum (and the third time today alone I've answered
the same question, I guess no one ever checks what was posted here
previously).

See http://64.78.15.8/outlook/esecup.htm#autosec for information.
