Hi, Gord --

I have created a SelfCert to validate my own macros in Word, Outlook
and Excel...but I get the same "This CA Root certificate is not trusted
because it is not in the Trusted Root Certification Authorities store"

Can you tell me now to get my certificate into the Trusted Root foler?

I have tried over and over again to do the other steps you describe
below...

Many thanks, Gregg


authorities store.

Did you use the SelfCert program to "write" the certificate?

If so, you shouldn't need to store in the Trusted Root folder.

Try this.......with your workbook open, ALT + F11 to go to VBE.

Select your workbook/project and ToolsDigital CertificatesChoose.

Select the DC you created and OK.

Save/Close your workbook.

Re-open. You may get a question about "Trusting from this source"
click "yes"
to always trust.

If no joy, post back and I'll explain how to move the selfcert DC to
the
Trusted Root folder.

OK....now Excel doesn't want me to use the macro because the digital
signature that I wrote isn't in the trusted root certification
authorities store.

How do I do that???

thnx

I followed Excel "help" and copy/pasted exactly what you wrote & it
works perfectly!!!

Now, if I only had a minimal clue what macros really can do.......

Drag the Custom Button (yellow smiley face) to your toolbar, right
click on it, assign macro (you have to have a worksheet open so
the
assign macro dialog box comes up). Right clicking on the button
while
the ToolsCustomize dialog box is open will also give you some
other
options (like changing the smiley face).
