Thanks

Is this in Access 2007? If so, the database must be in a "Trusted Location" in
order for VBA code such as this to be allowed. It would appear that the
developer specified the boss's folder as trusted, but yours isn't.

Check the Access help for "Trust Center".

Sorry this is Access 2003. The Access database is in a folder anyone
can access. Once open and you click on a button it creates a report
and sends it to a specified folder that was locked. I managed to
change the path of the report to a new unlocked folder. The boss ran
the report and it placed the report in the new folder with no
problems. But when I try and open the access file to run the report I
receive the error I listed above.

So in the code the developer specified that the bosses desktop where
the shortcut sits as "Trusted Location"? Not sure just a thought I
had.
Any help is appreciated.
