hi,

When I use a hyperlink to open a file such as a pdf file I get the security
notification. Is thier a way to have the notification not come up.

This is normally caused by the file residing on a untrusted "site"
(\\server\share\file.pdf) or the path to the file contains an IP
(\\192.168.1.1\share\file.pdf). In both cases you can avoid this
notification by adding the server\IP to the trusted sites in the
Internet Settings in the control panel.

If the notification is caused because it is a downloaded file, then
removing of the alternate data stream containing the zone information
works (under Vista: dir /R file.pdf).

I tried it no good still get the message. The file is in the same dir as the
database, local C:\xxx. I have had problems with access on a windows 2003
server some kind of rights problem, but that not this problem.

Has the file a zone identifier? Use dir /R when your running your app
under Vista otherwise try

I get a messagebox "Microsoft Office Access Security Notice"

a potential security concern has been identified. this location may be
unsafe.

This happens everytime I use a hyperlink to open a file, even if it is in a
trusted location.
