Enable Content on a shared drive

[pmallick]

I have put my shared database in a shared drive and set the folder within the
shared drive that the database sits, as a trusted location.

When I open the database all works well, however, when other users open the
database they still get the security message re enabling content.

How can if fix this so that no matter which user opens the database, the
content is always enabled.

I am the author of the database if that makes any difference.

Thanks

Bad idea to put your database in a shared location. This is the #2
FAQ. You should split the database in front-end (FE) and back-end (BE)
and put the BE in the shared location and the FE on each user's
workstation. Tony Toews has a utility to keep everyone's FE at the
latest version.

Hi Tom,

Took your advice, split my database, and used Tony's FE updater, works
perfectly.
Thanks so much for your help.

Have a great day
