Disable Microsoft Access Security Notice

Access 2007 and later versions of Access use trusted locations as a security measure to help prevent users opening a database from an unknown source. Typically, if you open a database that is not in a trusted location, Access will display a security message asking if you want to open the file.

With the full version of Access trusted locations can be added manually using the Trust Centre, for this follow the steps provided below:

…Open Microsoft Office Access on you computer, then
  1. Click the Microsoft Office Button and then click Access Options.
  2. In the left pane of the Access Options dialog box, click Trust Center.
  3. In the right pane, under Microsoft Office Access Trust Center, click Trust Center Settings.
  4. In the left pane of the Trust Center dialog box, click Trusted Locations. and then click Add New Location
  5. Browse to the folder in which the Shopbook Accounting Software is located and then click OK
    1. Once the Software is located in a Trusted Location, the Security Message at startup will be removed.
