How convert db to Access 2003?

I have an Access 2000 database that I used for quite some time in Access
2000. I'm now using Access 2003, and every time I open this database I
receive a Security Warning telling me "This file may not be safe if it
contains code that was intended to harm your computer". Why am I
getting this? If I need to simply convert it to Access 2003, I'm not
sure how to do this. Thanks.

it's not the A2000 db, it's the security setting in Access 2003. you can
open Access, click Tools | Macro | Security... and set the Security Level to
Low.

Thanks. But there are no macros in this database. Why is Access 2003
so nervous consider that Access 2000 wasn't?

Microsoft considers it a feature, due to all of the viruses et al out there.

Thanks. I'd prefer to keep the Macro Security at medium. What can I do
to my database so that Access 2003 recognizes it as safe and doesn't
give me the Security Warning each time I go to open it? Thanks much.
