We have run into the same problem - I don't think it is related to any of the recent patches. You can add the server name to the trusted sites in IE or you can add the extension to the Inclusion list for low file types. We haven't been successful with the low file type method adding more than 1 extension so we are working on the trusted sites route now. The only time we see it is if another user already has the database already open. -Brian

Had to start running them locally. Agreed I do believe it's an IE security setting, but haven't researched it enough to actually remove the issue.

Some users are now reporting the get an access denied error when attempting to open an access database on one of our shared folders (Netware drive, actually). I can't tell but I think one of the recent MS patches may have caused it. Here's the error: ********** Microsoft Access cannot open this file. The file is located outside your intranet or on an untrusted site. Microsoft Access will not open the file due to potential security problems. ************ If the user copies the file to his/her desktop, it opens fine. I've seen this before, but none of the suggestions via Google really fix the problem. Thinking it's related to IE, I reset the settings, but that has not changed. I don't have the error, and I think it's profile related (I can log onto the user's destop and open the file), but I hate to blow away a profile Suggestions?
