Network sharing problem

D

Dano

I have created an Access database to run on our company
network. When the database file is placed on the network,
and I attempt to run it from that shared location, Access
loads with an error.

"Microsoft Access cannot open this file. This file is
located outside your intranet or on an untrusted site.
Microsoft Access will not open the file due to potential
security problems. To open the file, copy it to your
machine or an accessable network location."

The database is not being used with any .asp pages and is
fairly simple in design. What must be done in order for
this database to be shared on the network?
