Excel macro's deleted when sending through Outlook
Hi,
We have a user who is sending excel spreadsheets, that have Macro's through Outlook 2003 (with Exchange Server). When people receive these spreadsheets, all the macro code seems to be deleted from the spreadsheet. There are no prompts to delete, or to say that the attachment could contain a virus. Can anyone help? Phreake PS the Macros are definatley deleted checked the spreadsheets on recipients PC |

Maybe it's the recipient's antivirus program being too aggressive.
Have you tried zipping the file and sending that? Phreake wrote: Hi, We have a user who is sending excel spreadsheets, that have Macro's through Outlook 2003 (with Exchange Server).

Excel macro's deleted when sending through Outlook
Hi,
There seems to be a new problem aswell, the file is saved on the network drive and still has lost it's code. The antivirus does not scan for macro's either. We have sort of recreated this by saving it as excel 95 file, but the users should not need to do this, as the form does the saving for them, also everyone is on office 2003 or office XP. PLEASE HELP!!!! Phreake Dave Peterson wrote: Maybe it's the recipient's antivirus program being too aggressive. Have you tried zipping the file and sending that?

Excel macro's deleted when sending through Outlook
Is this a userform created in the VBE?
If yes, then xl97 was the first version to support those Userforms. If you save it in xl95 format, the userform will be lost--but you should have gotten a warning message saying that stuff could be lost when you save it in that version. Are you positive that in you're saving it as a normal .xls workbook? Do the macros get destroyed when you save to a local disk? I'd talk to the IT folks to see why it's happening when you save to a network drive--maybe it's an aggressive antivirus program running on that server.
