Strange Message box???

[darkhat01]

Hi I used the Hyperlink Address in the properties of a command button to go to a website, but I get an message box that comes up:

Opening

http://www.whatever_the_link_is.com

Some files can contain viruses or otherwise be harmful to your computer.
It is important to be certain that this is from a trustworthy source.

Would you like to open this file?



I would like to turn this message box off for all my users how would I do this?

Thanks,

Darkhat01

Seems your Hyperlink Address isn't a site but a file on a site.
This is an Internet security issue.

Hope This Helps, PH.

darkhat01,

Did you ever get this resolved? Was PHV's thought correct? I would think the same thing, right off the bat by the way. I am just curious.

Thanks.

Your right, my fault, and I would like to apologies. It must have slipped my mind, not that this is an excuse. I will wathc this. Thanks again PHV.

PHV has been a great help with many of the problems I have had on this board. Thanks again…….
