    Good afternoon to all

    I have the following problem recently the company I work for bought a digital certificate (code sign "Comodo Br") to digitally sign macros access 2010 realized the whole process described in the microsoft forum, but to unpack my file on my client. accde, even accepting that my certificate is trusted Feedback appears the following warning:

    A potential security concern has been identified

    Warning: It is not possible to determine that this content came from a trustworthy source.
    You should leave this content disabled unless the content provides critical functionality and you trust its source.

    I performed the tests with the Excell 2010 and certificaod worked properly without giving any Feedback, I contacted the folks at Comodo Br but they were unable to answer me 'cause of the problem.

    Link used as reference:

    If by chance someone can help me.

    Hi,

    Since “After the database is extracted from the package, there is no longer a connection between the signed package and the extracted database.” mentioned in the article you posted, it seems the extracted database will no longer contain the digital signature. Moving the extracted database to the trusted location can help enabling the macros in database:

    or
    Directly extract the database to Trusted location.


    Sincerely

    Hi,

    Users can determine if the digital signature is trustworthy and decide extracting the database to trusted location or not:
