Hi,

i have a db which everyone uses which has started throwing up error messages whenever someone logs in:

unsafe expressions not blocked....

despite setting my macro security to low when i log in as the user to test it i get the same message, looking at the macro security shows me it is set at medium, despite me setting it as low originally. i log in as myself and it's set to low.

anyone know what is happeneing?

There might be a group policy on your XP computers that prevent you from changing the macro security. You can change the user's registry settings with VBA. Search around for the "registry" answer is in this forum if it applies to your situation. Also, you need to ensure the latest Jet is updated on your computers and that the Sandbox mode is turned off. Again, search around for your issue has been asked and answered before.
