    Using Developer option

    Hi Everyone


    I have tried to package the database using developer option, and when I am opening the application it is showing a message on top that this database is "Read only" so user has to save it first. Then after saving it as accdb file it is showing all the forms normally!
    Please advise
    Thanks
    Ash

    That's Access security cautioning you regarding a database which, if executed could change your system. Excel does the same same. Opening the database from a "trusted location" eliminates this isssue.

    There is always a trust center message when I open my database anyways for which I have to select enable option, but this is when I have installed and open my application, how can I get rid of it by changing settings?

    I have tried to convert accdb to accde before packaging, also I have tried to add a trusted location in trust center which is same location I have put in package to install the application in user computer, no matter what I do the "read only message " is still appearing and the first form which is a switchboard is opening without its buttons!

    Any help?
