Unsafe Expressions...........??

[bluenose76]

Hi,

Can anyone tell me why it is that when i have written a DB on one machine using Access 2003 and then subsequently put that DB on to another machine i get an error relating to unsafe expressions?

why does this happen and is there a away in which can stop this error message from appearing?

I am trying to implement the DB i have written at work but it does not look good when i get a constant error message appearing when ever i open the DB.

Thank you in advace for your help

Regards
Bev

This has to do with the security settings on the other machine. Your Access application is very likely set to Low security which lets macros and code run without warning. This can be adjusted from Tools>Macro>Security .

Thank you for your quick reply,

what if anything can i do in my DB that would ensure that this error message does not appear on other machines?
