Security Warning opening 2003

Guest

I do not have the menu choice Tools, Macro, Security

I do a database as a volunteer for a not for profit company.

I am using Access 2003.

i have a database i created in an earlier version. Each time I open the file
I get a dialog box:

Security Warning
Openine ###.mdb
This file may not be safe if it contains code that was intended to harm your
ocmputer.
do you want to open this file or cancel operation?

It does not have any bad code.

How do I stop this box each time i open the file?

It has been suggested I go to the Tools, Macro and select Security and
choose low. but I do not have security as an option.

I also go to Tools, Security and I don't have a macro option.

See:

Menu items are missing after you upgrade from an earlier
version of Microsoft Access to Microsoft Office Access 2003

http://support.microsoft.com/?id=833219

Here is additional information on the new macro security "feature":

You can also manually add the following Registry keys:
Set registry as follows:

ROOT:Local Machine
Key: SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Jet\4.0\Engines
Name:SandBoxMode
Value:#00000002

ROOT:Local Machine
Key: Software\Microsoft\Office\11.0\Access\Security
Name:Level
Value:#00000001

If these are just for your use, you can create a self cert on your computer
and digitally sign your databases. More info at:
