Are there instances when you already enabled the macro content of your MS Access Application, it will be disabled again?
Security Warning which prompts to enable the macro content.
This is how I enabled the macro content of our MS Access App.
You can add the directory the database is stored in to your trusted locations. See this link:

I am pretty sure the answer is "No" but I figured I would ask because I was not able to find a solid answer.
I am trying to create a web form that would write to an MS Access database that is stored on a Shared Network Drive. Is this something that is possible without a server?
No. Web forms require a web server to run (specifically, SharePoint server).
Interfacing with Access on a shared network drive is possible (either directly through Access or through another application), but not through a web form.
You can use an ODBC DNS to access a MS Access file that is share on a drive.
I'm building SSRS reports with the goal of downloading them as XML through URL. That is,
example.com/ReportServer/Pages/ReportViewer.aspx?%2fReports%2fReportName¶meterInput=parameterValue&rs:Format=XML
For the purposes of building tools and not having to authenticate for the time being, we'd like to disable credentials checking. However, no matter the settings specified, I'm prompted for credentials in a popup dialog.
To test that my "connect using" settings weren't being overlooked, in the reports manager I selected "Connect using credentials supplied by the user running the report". When this is selected, I'm still prompted once for credentials in a dialog, then a second time as expected.
I've tried adding an unattended execution account, not requiring credentials, and supplying credentials stored in the report. None of these have worked and I'm wondering whether there's a setting I've missed in the rsreportserver.config, or something beyond my control?
You can create a shared Data Source in your reporting services (which will hold database connection credentials) and use it in your report. After that you don't need to pass Data Source credentials via URL when you are generating a report.
I've written an application in Access 2013 (64-bit) that I'd like to split into front-end and back-end databases, storing the back-end on a file server where multiple machines can access the data via local instances of the front-end. None of the computers have Access installed, so I'm using Access Runtime 2013 on them.
The application runs fine when it is not split, on a single computer. As soon as I split the app into front-end/back-end files, the program opens and immediately closes on startup, with no error messages. I'm assuming that this is due to invalid links to the external data file on the first startup of the app (i.e. existing links are to folder locations on my development machine).
Has anyone experienced this problem? If so, is it due to invalid links? And, what can I do to allow the program to stay open, allowing the user to navigate to a form that I've provided in the main menu form for setting the path to the back-end file for re-linking tables?
In the load event for the menu form check if you can access the data by trying to open a recordset. If you can't, close the menu form and open your form for setting the database location. Make that there's nothing on you location setting form that is bound to the database.
Recently changed the windows password of the machine ,where the ssrs installed.All the services are running on the built-in account.
when trying to access the report server using the web-browser,it shows an error user does not have required permissions. Verify that sufficient permissions have been granted and Windows User Account Control (UAC) restrictions have been addressed
Quick Fix:
Right click the browser and Run as Administrator.
Then browse to the Report Url.
(Assuming You got that error because of UAC restriction).
How can I distribute a MS Access application (database) in a professional way?
I will be using NSIS to create an installation package.
I will be using a C# Application I created as a launcher for the access database file.
But when I open the access file, I am presented with the yellow security bar at the top, which warns about active content. That is not professional.
Please help!
Ms Access allows you to disable macros security just for that databae.
How?
Click the Microsoft Office Button and then click Access Options.
Click Trust Center, click Trust Center Settings, and then click Macro Settings.
There will be several options. You should click this one:
Enable all macros (not recommended, potentially dangerous code can run) Click this option to allow all macros to run.
After that you have to restart you ms access database.
The only con. about that is that you have to execute this process in every client computer. Because that setting depends on ms access instalation of the computer.
Hope it helps
