Need Help Eliminated MS Access security message when TransferDatabase method is used
I need to disable the Office 365 security warning message while running MS Access.
I already created a trusted location and this works well for all of my linked tables.
One line of code, however causes the security message to pop up even if the location is trusted.
The code is:
DoCmd.TransferDatabase acExport, "Microsoft Access", "//" & stFileServerComputerName & "/Export/EmployeeRoster.md
with stFileServerComputerName = to MyComputer
//Mycomputer/Export/ is a trusted location.
The message A potential security violation has been indentified: //Mycomputer/Export/Employ
Can anyone help? Thanks

@Gustav yes, network locations are enabled
@John I’m using slashes while your example issues backslashes?? My code has worked with slashes without issues with earlier versions of access????
I can certainly give the backslashes a try... that’s what you are suggesting?

(Forward) slashes are for Unix and the web. In DOS and Windows backslashes are used.

The backslash vs slash thing drives me crazy... is it that simple Gustav?? I guess we have to add file explorer paths???
Not sure what "file explorer paths" are, other than just being "paths".
But backslash is it for sure. A (forward) slash in a DOS/Windows path is forbidden in any case.

If you don't try you will never know...

Thanks again, to both of you!
John you mentioned the solution first.. and Gustav helped to clear up slash craziness I've experienced.

I have checked under security settings: Allow trusted locations on my network (not recommended)
