I created a database and put it in one of my company's network drive, so others can use it. Recently my PC has been updated to an ethernet connection from a token ring connection. I did the remapping of the network drive to reflect the new path. Since this update has occurred I get the error message below when I was trying to open the database. Not sure why this would happen. I tried to use a PC that hasn't been updated to open the database, it was fine.

Here is the error message:
Microsoft Access cannot open this file. This file is located outside your intranet or on an untrusted site. Microsoft Access will not open the file due to potential security problems. To open the file, copy it to your machine or an accessible network location.

Could someone please help me ! Thanks in advance !!!

Thanks Robert for your response.
I am new to the forum. This may be a silly question: How do I find this MSKB article Q303650?

Thanks again !
