Ive been asked to create a form that can be used to open a number of
different databases we have on our system.

Ive simply created a form with labels with hyperlink addresses to the
required databases.

However when I go to open one of the databases using the hyperlink i get a
Disable Microsoft Office Access Security Notice saying "This location may be
unsafe" "Hyperlinks can be harmful to your computer and your data. To Protect
your computer, click only those hyperlinks from trusted sources" "Do you want
to continue?"

Any ideas how to disable the message?
 
In our case (2003 on XP) we've found this to be an OS or IE problem (when
using shortcuts / hyperlinks)

The fix was: Not sure whether this is an IE settings or that it's just a way
to get at them, but the fix is: Go to IE->Tools-> Internet Options ->
Security -> Local Intranet -> Sites and uncheck "Automatically detect
intranet network"
 
Use this code as an onclick event for a button or such, works just fine:

Dim Strwww As String
Strwww = "file:///C:\LOCATION OF FILE"
Application.FollowHyperlink Address:=Strwww
