2000 DB to 2003 DB now Security warning

This is the closest I could come to my question. Sorry if it isn't the right
group.
I did backup of Access 2002 DB to CD, then loaded from CD to my new computer
which came with Access 2003, creating a new DB there.
I keep my address book in Access. Everytime I attempt to open my address
book, I get a Security Warning window that says: "This file may not safe if
it contains code that was intended to harm your computer. Do you want to open
this file or cancel the operation?"
What do I have to do to let Access know the data is valid so I don't have to
respond to the Security Warning each time?
Any/all help will be greatly appreciated

This is a *feature* (ask Microsoft and they'll tell you that).

This is just the way Access 2003 is. You could create a new blank MDB file on
your computer with Access 2003 and you would get the same warnings when you open
it.

Go to Tools - Macro - Security and set it to "Low".
