in message I am using access 2007 and have the yellow triangle on the majority of my
macros. I am trying to follow the advice of deploying the database to a
trusted location but how do I accomplish that? I have the database on my
hard drive, do I need to change an option somewhere to indicate my hard
drive is a trusted source? The marco I am currently working with is
transfering data from a network drive, do I need to indicate somewhere that
this network drive is trusted? I appreciate any help you can provide.
Thanks,
Jennifer

Terry,
The yellow triangle icon indicates a macro action which will only work if
the database is deployed to a "trusted location".

yellow triange
Some of the lines in my macro have a yellow triangle with an exclamation
point. What does that mean? The macro seems to run fine.

Thanks Steve. Then it puzzles me why all of the lines aren't marked the
same.

When I open the database in a trusted location, I would think everything in
the database is then from a trusted location. The database was built years
ago, probably office 97. In 2007 the triangles appear. In 2003 they don't. I
just want to be sure everything is trusted when my employees use the mdb
irregardless of the Office version they are using.

Terry,
No, it doesn't indicate whether the database is trusted or not. It is an
indication that these actions will not work *if* the database was to be used
in a non-trusted state. It only applies to some macro actions, not all.
Some macro actions will continue to work in a non-trusted database. And
this feature is only operative in Access 2007, it is a new feature.

Re: yellow triange
Thanks again, Steve.

Steve - A follow-up question on this aspect if I may pls.
Steve - A follow-up question on this aspect if I may pls. I am using Access
2007, but saving my DB in 2003 format (because that is what is at work). I,
too, have yellow triangles dotted across a range of macros in my database
resulting if I understand it right from SetValue action. Often in my DB, the
condition associated with SetValue revolves around the trusted state. The
condition sometimes results - and this is part of the problem - in the error
message telling me that SetValue cannot be run in disabled mode. But it
works
in other fine in other macros elsewhere in the DB. So I am getting
inconsistent results. My questions ... If the triangle feature is new
inAccess 2007, is it therefore safe to delete those lines from the macros in
my 2003-formatted DB without causing problems? If I need to retain those
lines, what then is the equivalent action I should use as a substitute for
SetValue? Thanks, Steve, in advance.
Regards
Chris
