2007 users cannot open secured 2003 database

[AccessIM]

Hi All-

I have read through some of the older threads regarding the issue I am
having but it seems like I have the shortcut correct and the 2007 users still
cannot view the database. Here is the situation:

I am working in Access 2003 and created a secured database in this program.
I then put a link to the location of the secured database shortcut on an
SharePoint site so that users in different divisions within my company could
access the database.

Everything works like a charm for the majority of the users but there is one
division who has been upgraded to Office 2007. The users in this division
cannot view the database. When they click the link to the shortcut, nothing
happens.

I have read that you can open Access 2003 databases in Access 2007 so I am
assuming (and from threads) that the problem lies with the the shortcut.

The following path is in the target field of the shortcut:
"C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\OFFICE11\
MSACCESS.EXE" "M:\Apps\Database\SharePoint Databases\Booked
Orders\Booked Orders DB 48.mdb" /WRKGRP
"M:\Apps\Database\SharePoint Databases\Booked Orders\Security.mdw"

The following path is in the Start In field:
"M:\Apps\Database\SharePoint Databases\Booked Orders\"

Another fact that might be worth mentioning is that we are a blade system
not regular PCs.

Any suggestions to help me to get these 2007 users to be able to open the
database would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you in advance.

Sorry, I don't have Access 2007 installed on this machine, but I would
expect that the executable would be

"C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\OFFICE12\MSACCESS.EXE"
