Default VBA just stops when opening a macro workbook

I bet you're multitasking while this macro is being run and you are typing
the shift key during execution. Read on here.

I've used this for a while and since I've moved to 2007, I've run into
trouble because I believe I'm having a bit of a delay between testing for the
shift key and the workbook opening. Hopefully it'll work now while I'm
typing this, because I have it in code that is executing now.

Hello,

I have written VBA code to open workbooks, perform procedures and then saves
and close the workbooks. Every thing works just fine until I get to a
workbook that has a macro, then my VBA stops just after the workbook with the
macro is opened.
No error messages. It just stops. The call stack totally disappears.

I have tried turning off events just before opening the workbook with the
macro, but that did not work.

I have tried "On Error" statements, that did not work.

I have tried signing with workbook with a trusted certificate, did not help.

QUESTION: What do I need to do to open macro workbooks and perform my
procedures with out my VBA terminating like this?

Example:

Application.EnableEvents = False
Workbooks.Open Filename:= "C:\Test\ExcelWB_Template.xls"
' This is where my VBA just stops
Range("A1").FormulaR1C1 = "ABC Company"
Range("A2").FormulaR1C1 = "123"
