Default Locking Cells

Thanks for the help.

If the workbook is digitally signed it will be trusted on all workstaions.

I don't work with signatures and servers so don't know if simply putting an
unsigned workbook in a trusted location will do the trick.

Others who deal with this issue regularly will be along to assist.

Thanks for replying,

Well I'm using it the same way as the other member. To allow other ppl to
enter information without them deleting anything else.

So lowering security isnt applicable as it will be on other ppl workstations.

It will be on a server so after giving it a signature how do i make the
signature apply to the other workstations when they open it.

What about putting it in a trusted location, would that be a possiblity?

Thanks

Lower your Security level?

Or digitally sign the workbook/project so it becomes trusted and not disable
macros.

Hi this is exactly what i've been trying to do and i've got it working great.

There is one problem though when the program starts i get a bar appear
"Security Warning, Macros have been disabled [options]".

If you dont click enable then none of the security/locked cells (i.e. the
macro) does run.

Is there any way to make the program start already enabled.

Thanks
