David,

Interesting thing to report concerning this. Rheishman was on vacation 
all last week, so didn't encounter the problems after the upgrade. So, 
yesterday she got the little security message and I fetched this e-mail 
to help her set to "low" vs. "medium". We only tried MS Access, but it 
told her she wasn't authorized to make the change. Isn't that odd? Is 
there any difference between a user like her and a user like me as far 
as that is concerned? Has anyone else reported a problem like this to 
you? A little something for you to think about today...

thanks,
T
