I think I understand. You are under pressure right now and reacting to
unplanned, necessary, PITA work. Can't blame you!

Not all jobs will cause these messages to appear from what I'm reading. As
I read, I discovered something we can consider to be the 'skinny' on the
topic at http://www.dbforums.com/t961725.html . I recommend taking a look
at the following Q&A and take some reassurance. The issue is simple. Some
queries can access the operating system and it's particularly offensive if
someone builds an Office document to host on the web with Document Object
Hosting with mailicious intent. That hosted document can effectively own
the site visitor's system:

Subject: Access 2003 security warning

--------------------------------------------------------------------------
------
I'm getting the following message when opening an Access
2000 database:
"Microsoft Jet 4.0 Service Pack 8 or later must be
installed to block unsafe expressions without affecting
common functionality."

I have checked out the download center but cannot find a
Service Pack for Jet 4.0 and the latest mdac update
excludes the Jet engine specifically.

Also, I don't want to install a new driver that may
interfere with my concurrent Office 2000 installation.
How can I disable the security warning?

Thanks
Walter

Hi Walter,

We can install Jet 4.0 SP8 to get the Access 2003 warning message; we can
refer to the article to download Jet 4.0 SP8;

Information About Jet 4.0 Service Pack 8
http://support.microsoft.com/?id=829558

If you don't want to install Jet SP8, you can follow the instructions on
how to turn on the Jet Sandbox which are documented in the KB article at
http://support.microsoft.com/defaul...kb;en-us;294698.

In general, there should not be any major issues when running Access
2000/2002 in
sandbox mode. This is actually the mode we suggest for Access 2003 and if
you have
a computer with multiple versions installed, they all run the same Jet.
There are a
few specific issues in SP7 that have been discovered and are fixed in SP8.

The most
traumatic issue results in randomly returning #ERROR in a query even
though
the
functions being used are safe. This problem goes away if you turn off
SandBoxMode
by changing the registry value to 2.

For more information regarding Jet SandBoxMode, see the following article:
http://support.microsoft.com/?id=294698

Please feel free to reply to the threads if you have any questions or
concerns.

Subject: [mso] Outlook-Moving data from one computer to another

I'm in the process of setting up a new computer. Windows XP, Office 2002 I
want to copy my Outlook data from one machine to the other. I will be
using both machines running same versions of Office. Yes, two separate
licensed copies <g>



I do not want to move my contacts (address book) to the new computer. They
are screwed up from a previous move and I cannot get them to alpha order.
How can I move all my pst files and not the contacts?



Thanks,



Jan
