I had to reinstall Office XP recently. I have a word document linked to an
access database via a dde connection. Now when I open the document a window
opens with the following:

Opening this document will run the following SQL command…………….Data from your
database will be placed in the document. Do you want to continue?

I want this to happen automatically without having to confirm this every
time. Do you know how?
