Default How To Check If The User Has Macros Enabled When The Workbook Opens

If macros are disabled, you can't run any code that would test that.
If code runs, then, by definition, macros are enabled. If you need the
user to have macros enabled to use the workbook, you can set things up
to that the workbook is unusable if macros are disabled. See
http://www.cpearson.com/Excel/EnableMacros.aspx
and
http://www.cpearson.com/Excel/EnableMacros2.aspx

for details and examples.

Hi,

I have a workbook project which I will be distributing to a bunch of
execs and I want to write a select case statement to check and see
whether the user has macros enabled when he opens it. What is the
object/method for macros or security or whatever?

Thanks
