I wrote a VB program to take attendance for the school Library. It scans a
syudents ID, looks up the ID in a database table to get student name etc.
Writes this information to a different table. After all ID's are scanned for
that period I have a button to post the list to our web site so Study hall
monitors can check attendance. I have a report in access to sort the second
database by last name and display the list. I can get this report to export
as HTML however I get promted to open the database with a security warning
when it does. Is there a way to run this report without opening access? Or
is there a way to read the second database into VB to generate an HTML page
that I could save. At the present I am using the

..doCmd.outputto acreport, reportname, acFormatHTML, filename, false, ""

command after opening the database.

Thanks in advance.
