I am running an external application script through hyperlink on a
command button. When that happens, a windows warning pops up saying
"Some files may contain viruses, do you want to continue? "

How do I override that? I have tried Set Warnings False, but it doesn;t
help.

Cheers
Sunny

If you have Access 2003, you can try changing macro security by going
to Tools > Macro > Security and setting it to Low. This may suppress
the warning.

Some of the other folks here would know more about that, but in the
meantime you could try http://www.google.com for information about
programmatically downloading files with VBA.

I am a little confused as to what you mean by "running an external
application script through hyperlink on a
command button." Are you trying to remote control a web page? If so
use the ms browser control. Add it to a form, use the html object
library to help nav you page and click your links. You can handle some
messages by events and others by hooking the control and watching for
new windows. It's not for the faint of heart, but there is tons of
documentation on how to do it. I've had similar issues that I have
dealt with this way.

Near as I can determine you can write a VB script to set the security
settings low for the app. This is better than setting the entire office
package to low security.

You might want to check out google groups for groups = *access* and for
the words
Security Warnings script

Thanks I need to looks for a security warnings script. I am running an
avaya auto script file, which contains vb...so when i run that from
access, windows gives a warning. I will check.
