Link code in question:
<a href="file:///G:\Fileshare\General\PO_Database\PO.mdb">Purchase Order Database</a>
Opens just fine in IE… why not in FF or Chrome? Is there a work-around?
This issue is caused by default security settings in Chrome and Firefox.
In order to have Chrome automatically open a *.mdb file after being downloaded, perform the following steps:
1) First time, tell the browser that you want to keep the file
2) Tell the browser that you want to open the file automatically from now on
3) After step #2, you will notice in your Chrome settings a new button to “Clear auto-opening settings”
4) Associate the file extension with Microsoft Access program
