I can see this working for "Trusted Sources", but that is not my case. All I
can do is try to check for the Security Level. Any ideas?

Is there any way to check programmatically, if the security level is set to
allow macros to run, and then 1) display a message indicating that the
security level must be set to medium and/or the macros must be enabled; and
2) stop any activity on the workbook and force the user to restart excel with
macros enabled?

This is what I use (unwrap wrapping in MsgBox):

Function DoesProjectExist(AddInName As String) As Boolean
' addin name is case sensitive. is project name, not file name
Dim W As Object
DoesProjectExist = False
On Error GoTo ErrSection
For Each W In Application.VBE.VBProjects
If W.Name = AddInName Then DoesProjectExist = True
Next
Exit Function

ErrSection:
MsgBox "In order for this to work properly you need to change a
setting. Go to Tools - Macros - Security... - Trusted Sources tab. Then
both boxes at the bottom have to be checked.", vbCritical, "Macros Are Not
Trusted Source"

End Function
