Default Macro warning when no macros in workbook

Doubleclick on the ThisWorkbook object and see if there is any code in there - If so then
delete the code and save the workbook. Him emailing you the file shouldn't make any
difference - The macro or module would have to be in the file that was being opened at the
time to generate the warning message

Ken:

I did as you suggested, but "Modules" does not appear under the workbook
name, Just "Excel Objects". Any other suggestions? Would this change if he
e-mailed me the files, rather than me looking at them on his system?

You need to delete any empty modules that housed those macros.

Hit ALT+F11 and this will open the VBE (Visual Basic Editor)
Top left you will hopefully see an explorer style pane. Within this pane

you need to
search for
your workbook's name, and when you find it you may need to click on the +

to expand it.
Within
that you should see the following:-

VBAProject(Your_Filename)
Microsoft Excel Objects
Sheet1(Sheet1)
Sheet2(Sheet2)
Sheet3(Sheet3)
ThisWorkbook
Modules
Module1
Module2
etc etc (You may have just 1 of these)

If you have named your sheets then those names will appear in the brackets

above as
opposed to
what you see at the moment in my note.

Right click on the modules and select remove. When prompted with a

question re exporting,
just
hit no. Then hit File / Close and return to Microsoft Excel and save the

file.

I have a user who has several Excel workbooks that give the macro

warning
when opened, even though there are no macros in the workbooks. His

security
is set to high, and I can arrange to lower the setting if it is

required,
but would prefer to leave it set at the companies default setting

(high).
Does anyone have any idea why a workbook with no macros would trigger

the
warning

Thanxz
