Security Problems w/Access 2003

J

I have as application that uses Access 2002. I've distributed it to about 150 users and have never encountered the problem I'm having with one particualr user. I am stumped

This user has Office 2003 installed. My application installs the Access 2002 runtime. Since this user already has office, the 2002 runtime does not install. Instead, my application goes ahead and uses his Access 2003

Here's the problem: When my application starts (which is compiled as an MDE, btw) on this user's system, all he sees is the start up form wich flashes for a half second, and is gone. No error message. Nothing. Just flash, and gone

I had him start Access 2003, then open my MDE file from with Access 2003. He got security warning to the effect of "Unsafe expressions are blocked" and other one about Macro security levels. He reset his macro security level to Low, and I had him hack the registry to set SandBoxMode to 0 (zero), according to this article

http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;29469

Bottom line, the application will not run. I had him open the MDE file with a CTRL-Left Click, so that the code would not execute and it opens fine. When he opens the default for (which executes code) Access aborts and closes

What's up with this? What do I need to do
