How to Set the Warnings in Access 2007

Access 2007 is a relational database management system developed and marketed by Microsoft. Access uses "macros" to perform designated actions like opening, printing or updating reports. The Access Trust Center protects and secures these macros. Whenever the Trust Center detects a threat, it generates a warning notification. These warnings, when disabled, lets the macros run automatically without any notification. Note that enabling these warnings can help to mitigate risks from viruses or other related malware.

Instructions

1. Launch Microsoft Access 2007 from the Start menu or desktop shortcut.

2. Click the "Microsoft Office" ribbon button, and select "Access Options."

3. Click "Trust Center" in the left pane.

4. Click the "Trust Center Settings" button.

5. Check the option that says "Disable all macros with notification." This will set the warning notifications and security alerts if there are macros present. This way you can choose when to enable those macros on a case by case basis based on the threat.

6. Click "OK."
