Runtime question - Trusted location

G

Guest

I am using Access 2007.

I have an application that I've written on one machine (that has Access) and
now I want to install it on another (that doesn't have Access).

On the second machine I have downloaded and installed the Runtime exe. In
the course of starting the application I am given a the security message
about the file not coming from a trusted source.

In a full instrallation of Access I would just go into Options and make the
directory trusted. But when the machine you are running the application from
doesn't have a full copy of Access, how do you make the direcotry trusted?.

Isn't there an easy way to do this? I have searched for answer to this
question and apparently there is a way but it was so esoteric that it was
difficult to follow.

Any help appreciated

But not SO esoteric you could not post a link to that article here, so
we may read it as well, and could perhaps provide a translation.

If you posted the link, I did not see it.

I guess I don't understand why. It's two messages up from this one, dated
Nov 1.

But it's a moot point now. The problem was solved days ago but I was
curious as to how long it would take to get a response on this forum.

Maybe you are just a helper and not a Microsoft person. If so, well, thank
you for what you do. However, I must say that this is not the first time I
have had this experience on this news group. To get an answer to a question
days after it is asked is almost no help at all.

It's possible that my expectation for the news group is out of sync with
reality but this is one persons experience. No personal offense intended.

None taken. Indeed your Nov-1 message never showed up in my news
reader. Still hasn't. I think that's a problem for my ISP (Cox).

Many people posting in this and other "microsoft.public" newsgroups
are not MSFT employees. Those who are typically identify themselves in
their sig. I am not. I'm a development manager of a small software
company, which many years of Access programming under my belt, and I
like to share.
In general I think you can't expect newsgroups to be a substitute for
paid support you need RIGHT NOW. You take what you can get, and you
set your expectations low enough so you're happy with any response you
may get.

Well, that's probably realistic. It seems a bit deceptive to have a public
newsgroup, sponsored by Microsoft, where that's the case, but realistic.

If it is of interest the Utter Newsgroup is very active. You can post a
message there and often have it answered within minutes.

Good luck to you, and thank you.
