Access 2003 Unsafe Expressions

    Our office recently started upgrading our Access from 2000 to 2003. Users are now getting the "Do you want to block unsafe expressions" message every time they open an Access application. When I was checking into this I found one path that involved setting up a digital signature and another that involved lowering the security settings to low. Neither of these comes across as a great option. Has anyone else out there found an easier workaround? thanks

    Thanks. The page looks like it is going to give us some options.

    If you have the Microsoft Developer Extensions, run the Custom Startup Wizard, work your way to step 3 and there is a check you can run 'Find expressions blocked in sandbox mode' which will check your project for unsafe expressions. If there are none, you can advise your users to accept the message about unsafe expressions, which will put the app in sandbox mode and when run on their machine in the future it should not throw the warning.
