Default Excel 2007 working on files created with older versions

Hi,

First shot, is there a Security bar below the Ribbon? If so click Options
and choose Enable...

If you have saved an Excel 2007 as an XLSX file instead of an XLSM all
macros will have been lost.

If this helps, please click the Yes button.

Cheers,

I work with a form that has macros to calculate all kinds of things. Nothing
I set up --- wouldn't know how to even start. However, I do work with the
s/s and it's older versions. Have no problem with the macros there. Now in
2007, when you open a s/s with macros, work it, then save, it saves as .xls
instead of .xlsm. When the s/s is passed on to the next person (me) who works
other areas of the s/s, the macros have been disabled. the way i know this
is i tried to change some data that affects/is part of a macro, but excel
doesn't see them anymore.
Can i restore them somehow?
Hope this makes sense.
