Active Content

I have been backing up my Genealogy database on a frequent basis, until recently when I get the error message; "The active content in this file is blocked Review your Trust Centre settings or contact your IT administrator." I have checked my active settings and cannot see/find anything a miss, any thoughts?

Run through the Troubleshooter.

Try Compact & Repair then maybe decompile and recompile (Compile).

Also check out this Microsoft page and run through their suggestions HERE

If all else fails, you'll need to eliminate where the problem could lie. Can you manually copy and paste the database file? have you checked the trust centre settings, got Trusted Location set up, checked windows permissions.
