Pop up for macro request?
If you want a macro to run when it opens, name the macro AUTOEXEC.

Pop up for macro request?
One suggestion would be to provide specific information when posting a
question, including the version of the program. If you forget what the message is about, open Access again and write it down. Saying that something happened, but you can't remember what, but you would like to solve it, is not a lot of information. Access can have macros. You may get pop-up messages depending on the security settings. In Access 2007 there is something called Trusted Locations that can prevent such messages, but I don't know the details of how that works. In earlier versions of Access the security settings may cause messages to be generated. Avoiding these messages requires either digitally signed certficates, which I do not understand very well, or that security settings be set to low. My two cents: Medium security is in many ways the worst of all worlds. There are messages, but most users cannot evaluate them, so they click through them. Users tend to see so many messages in general that their objective becomes to make them go away as quickly as is possible. I have looked over users' shoulders as they duplicate a problem they are having. A message box appears, but they click it to make it go away before there is a chance to read it. When I ask they may tell me that it appears every time, but when I ask what it says they do not know. "Eric" wrote in message ...
