Thank you Bill. I think that is it. I knew I had seen this before but kept coming back to the sandbox thing. I'll put it in my note book this time.

XP SP2 marks files as having come from a non secure site, in most cases right clicking on the file and selecting properties, if the secure flag is set, you will see a button labeled unblock at the bottom of the page, click this and you should be home. Sometimes this option may not work, saving the file to a non ntfs format and then copying it back may also fix the problem. Note: the Unblock button does not appear on a file that is not marked. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Doug Murphy" <dw-murphy at cox.net> To: "'Access Developers discussion and problem solving'" <accessd at databaseadvisors.com> Sent: Thursday, June 01, 2006 7:51 PM Subject: [AccessD] This file is located outside your intranet or on anuntrusted site Folks, I sent a client an access 2003 database in 2000 format. The file was zipped when sent. She extracted it and tried to open and gets the message: Microsoft Access cannot open this file. This file is located outside your intranet or on an untrusted site. Microsoft Access will not open the file due to potential security problems. To open the file, copy it to your computer or an accessible network location. I looked this up and the knowledge base article talks about in internet explorer security setting. This seems a little bazar so I thought I'd query this group on possible causes and solutions. The client is running Access XP. She has Jet 4 and we tried setting the sandbox setting to 0. No help. The interesting thing is that I took a preliminary set of files to her office on a CD and they ran fine on her machine. I seem to recollect some discussion about this on the list but haven't found anything. Any thoughs, or suggestions. Thanks in advance.
