The forms were recently updated to address the situation of the Security Warning message appearing when the Import Data button is pressed. This fix addresses that situation so that the message no longer appears.
A file needs to be downloaded to your computer in order to work with updated forms. The forms were updated to get around the Security Warning message from appearing. In order for the fix to load all processes related to Acrobat need to be terminated.
