[AccessD] Run-Time Problem

With a run-time install, though, I don't think I can get to the macro
security level setting.

Hi Rocky,

If the normal setting of the macro security level doesn't help, you might
check this rather obscure setting.

\\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Jet\4.0\engines\SandboxMode

Mine is set for 2


see http://support.microsoft.com/kb/294698

for more information.

HTH

Dear List:

I gave a run-time install to a client - I actually went and installed it on
several machines - but one machine I didn't do.  So today the user ran the
Setup.exe, which I created using Wise/SageKey - works just dandy - installed
it, started the mdb.  Now to get into the program you have to answer three
questions correctly, the first one of which is about blocking unsafe
expressions.  The answer should be No.  He clicked Yes.  Of course, the
program wouldn't open.

Now the problem, when he goes in again the mdb won't start, won't even get
to the first of the questions.  Instead he gets a message that the mdb
cannot be opened due to security restrictions.  And bails out.  So I had him
copy the mdb from another location where it was working, on the theory that
it was the mdb that was flagged as blocked.  But that didn't help.  So I
figured the restriction is set in the run-time somewhere so I had him
uninstall the Runtime from the Add/Remove programs in the control panel and
reinstall.  But no luck.

So, how do I get the Access run-time install to ask again about blocking
unsafe expressions so they can get back into the mdb?



MTIA,



Rocky
