Access 2003 & Microsoft Jet 4.0 Service Pack 8

[Peter]

I've just opened Access 2003 for the first time and tried
to open one of my existing databases. A window appears
which includes the following message:

"Microsoft Jet 4.0 Service Pack 8 or later must be
installed to block unsafe expressions without affecting
common functionality.
The latest Microsoft Jet 4.0 service pack is available
from Windows Update."

However, in MS Windows Update I can't find any reference
to "Microsoft Jet 4.0 Service Pack 8" or indeed any
downloads for Access 2003.

Can anyone help please?

This is Peter again with a response to my own query!
More careful research further back in this newsgroup
reveals a message saying that service pack 8 is not yet
ready but in the meantime I should be able to open my
files safely.
Sorry to have raised a hare needlessly!

It isn't out yet. It's coming in the next couple of weeks. Until it's
available, you can go to Tools, Macro, security and set the security level
to low.
