I am trying to open an access database located on a networked computer. I
get the error message "Microsoft Access cannot open this file.
This file is located outside yourintranet or on an untrusted site. Microsoft
will not open the file due to potential security problems. To open the file
copy it
to your machine or to an accessible network location."

I can copy the file across the network and then open it, I am able to share
an excel file, so it not a network issue.

Same problem. It worked 4 weeks ago. I wonder if one of the Microsoft
security update 'fixes' has produced this problem?

Or using the beta version of Windows Internet Explorer?

I have fixed it now, go to internet explorer properties, on the security page, click on local intranet and click on sites just below it, have automatically detect intranet network untick and the three below all ticked, this worked for me.
