Trusted locations for 2007 Access

[TomC]

I am going to purchase a new PC and order Office Professional 2007 with it.
I now use Office 2003 and have many data bases. It is my understanding that
I will have to locate my data bases in a "Trusted Location" to use them with
Access 2007. All my data bases are now located in "My Documents" along with
a lot of other files. My first question is will I have to move my data bases
individually or is there some way I can move or make them all "Trusted" at
one time? Not being familiar with "Trusted FIles", my second question is
there some special way I am to create a "Trusted Folder" or does 2007 provide
this. Finally, is there some techincal document available that explains what
one is to do in going from 2003 to 2007? Thanks in advance. Tomc

FWIW if you distribute your databases to other users in your
organization the Auto FE Updater can create the Trusted Locations
registry entries for you.
