Running Vista Home Basic on laptop, with Office 2007.

 

In Powerpoint,one slide has a Hyperlink to a Flash (swf) file, that opens

with the Standalone Flash Player.

 

Annoying warning pops up each time.

 

I found numerous references to Registry tweak adding key

HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Office\12.0\Common - add key Security - add DWord

DisableHyperlinkWarning (1). It doesn't work. I presume it's an XP

rather than a Vista Registry fix?

 

How to do it in Vista???? The bloody stupid Nanny warning is most

off-putting in the middle of a high-level PP presentation:

 

Opening C:\path\xxxxx.swf. Some files can contain viruses or otherwise be

harmful to your computer. It is important to be certain that this file

comes from a trustworthy source. Would you like to open this file?

 

There is no option to tell Nanny Vista that the file is OK and to stop

nagging me about it. Murder is becoming a viable option.
