enabling macros

[Karen]

Hi,

I am making a database which is going to be posted on a web page for people
to download onto their computers. Is there a way to prevent the message that
says that the macros have been disabled when they open the database and to
keep the macros enabled? I know how to enable macros when I receive the
message by selecting this through the the office button. Is there a way to
keep this setting checked when opening the database on a different computer?
Thanks.

I think macros are enabled when the file is digitally signed and the user
trusts the certificate, but without that, security in Access 2007 prevents
the developer from bypassing security on the user's pc.

If the user opens the db file with an earlier version of Access, code will
run without warning the user - except 2003. Macro security and sandbox mode
need to be set to allow unsafe expressions to run without being blocked.
