I'm currently in the process of dealing with this same situation. The only
way I've been able to get it to work is to create a digital signature
certificate, and attach the certificate to the db. I'm still not sure if that
will eliminate the messages in all cases, but it seems to be working so far.
The only other thing I've found that may address the problem is to set the
security level in Access 2003 to LOW, which pretty much defeats the whole
purpose of security. I've yet to figure out how to turn off the noise for
db's older than 2003 that don't allow for attaching a certificate or
instructing Access that it's ok to run this mde via switches or an approved
ap table, etc.
