I've got a peer to peer network. I can open Excel files on other
computers on the network but not Access.

How do I fix this?

One computer has Windows XP Pro, the other two have
Windows 7.

All have Access XP.

"Microsoft Access can not open this file"
"The file is located outside of your intranet or on an untrusted
site."
 
Right click on the file on each computer and choose properties, then make
sure to unblock the file. Most Excel files do not have code. Access, at
least professional Access databases, have code.

Next. Make sure that your database is split with the front-end running from
each workstation, linked to the data on the back-end. Not doing so is
inviting eventual corruption, perhaps to the point of losing all your data.

Have a look at the following for multi-user databases:

I think you can open your Access file

but make sure the program Access is the same Install in 3 computers .
share your files

Use this command
in the START menu
Run \ \ computer Name
good Luck
