Access button won't work for some users

I created an Access 2007 DB in Office 2010.  On my computer, and one other co-worker's, all buttons on the manually created switchboard are operational.  On other machines, one button doesn't work.

Most of the buttons only open reports or exit the DB.  The trouble button is one that, on click, a password popup is launched to protect the edit/entry form.  Upon correct password entry, the edit/entry form opens.

As I said, this works on a couple computers, but on most, the button does not launch the password entry popup.  This DB lives on a shared server where anyone with access to the share drive can access this DB (the reason for the password on the edit/entry form.)  Why does this button work on some systems and not others?  Any insight you can offer would be greatly appreciated!

    In the cases where it doesn't work, has the database front-end been added to the Trusted Location listing?

    I found the answer in the Trust Center Settings.  The Macro Settings were different on the computers that could not run the button.  Thanks for your help!
