Trust Center Issue

L

Lloyd

I have developed an access 2007 split database. The front end is on the end
users desktop and the backend on a server. I set the trusted locations as
c:\document and settings and set it to allow all sub-folders.

My users dong have access 2007 so they are using the access 2007 viewer.
when the open the database they get a warning indicating that the database
may not be from a trustworthy source and asking if they want to open it or
cancel.

I dont understand since I set the trusted location and included all
sub-folders why the end user keeps getting this message?

thanks in advance.

Documents and Settings has a complex structure; it just APPEARS to be
an ordinary directory tree.
Try it with c:\program files\YourApplication

I'm not sure I'm going to agree with this. I'dve thought that the
original posters idea would work.
Try it with c:\program files\YourApplication

However regular users can't update anything inside the Program Files
hierarchy. Thus that would be very troublesome with Access FEs and
copying down a new FE from the server.
