Recently I copied a MS-Access 2002 file from local
machine to Windows 2000 server. From server I shared that
file and try to access it from my PC over the network.
The moment I double click on access file it displays
error "Microsoft Access cannot open this file. This file
is locatged outside your intranet or on an untrusted
site. Microsoft Access will not open the file due to
potential security problems"

Can anybody provide me the solution for above mention
problem.

Thanks Mr. Tom for your efforts.
Basically the folder I moved to server is just a file
server, and nothing do with Web server .On the client
site we just mapped to it.
Anyhow, I able to solve the problem just by replace the
IP address with server name in map drive. By just doing
this users able to read, write, modify and execute the MS-
access file over the network.
 
I have the same problems. That will teach me to upgrade Microsoft
products. It worked perfectly fine before.
