    Operating systems


    I have been running access 2003 on my system that uses XP-Pro. I received a laptop that has windows 7 on it. I loaded access 2007 from MS office on the windows 7 system but none of the controls work on my database. I havent a clue as to whats wrong. Any idea's??

    The first thing is to make sure the database is in a Trusted Location or that you've specifically enabled code (an option under the ribbon).

    I'm sorry but I forgot to say I know nothing about windows 7. I only wish to run the 2003 file thru access 2007.

    Trusted Locations is an Access 2007/2010 feature, as is the enable code option.
