Access Default Security Setting and Trust Center

[rhett7660]

Hello..

I am not an administrator on our network so I can't log into a computer to try this out and I have searched and I haven't found what I am looking for.


Question:

If an administrator logs on a computer as the computer administrator fires up access. Can they set the default security under the trust center that will apply to all users of the computer?

IE they set macro's to run and they add a new network folder where the back end will reside. Will the security setting and network folder carry over to ALL users who use the computer if they are not administrators on the computer just users?

So I can set it once and for get about the security settings from within access?


Details
Access 2007.
Windows XP boxes.

Thanks

No. AFAIK, The Access security setting is set in each user's profile.

If you are on a domain, you could have the admins use a GP to push the registry setting.

IMHO, it really does not sense that it works this way from a security standpoint.
