block unsafe expressions?

[Dean Chiang]

hi. i had a database in access 2002 that was fine. then
i upgraded to access 2003, and now everytime i open that
database it asks me if i want to "block unsafe
expressions." i downloaded the patch for jet 4.0 service
pack whatever like it said... and it still does this. i
hav eno idea what to do about it. it's annoying. does
anyone know what this error means and how to fix it?

thanks,
dean

It is a new feature in A2003 for code security.

thanks... it was helpful. but do you know how to remove
the objectionable code from the database? i'm not even
sure what it's objecting to. you know what i mean?

The article has a link that tells you exactly what to do.

It isn't objecting to your code it is objecting to any code. (Or macro).

It is a new security feature.
You always have the option of turning it off completely, but it is not
recommended.
