    Microsoft office has identified a potential security concern when uploading to MS access

    Hi

    Just started on InfoPath and the intention is to host a full InfoPath 2007 client e-form, linked to a Microsoft Access database - both saved on the same network share.

    When we test the submit function, we get the following message (clicking on ok makes the data upload correctly, but users of the form won't like the message!)

    "Warning: This form is using your identiy to connect to data sources" 

    You shold clikc YEs only if you trust both the location where this form resides and the sate sources it can access. If you click No, the form does not connect to any data sources that are on a different domain.

    This form is located at:

    c:\documents and settings\admin\my documents\testing2.xsn

    This form will connect to data sources located at:

    c:

    Do you want to connect to these data sources"

    Does anyone have any advice on this please? Thanks in advance, Jon

    This is an extra layer of secuity that InfoPath add to warn the user that they are connecting to a secondary data source on a different domain.  You'll likely get this warning each time and will have to train your users why they get this prompt.
