Hi...
I've written this great spreadsheet but I don't want users to ask if they need to enable macros or not when they start excel. How can I get around this so that my macros run. I know there are security issues here but I'm the boss and I'm writing this for my my business...Is there any code that can do this for me? Gordon. |

Hi Gordon
Though I won't do this for security reasons you can change the security level to 'Low' (goto Tools- Macro - Security) -- Regards Frank Kabel Frankfurt, Germany Gordon C wrote: Hi...

Frank, would it be possible for Gordon C to self-certify and sign his macros
digitally, and then ask his staff to always trust macros from him? "Frank Kabel" wrote in message ...

If I understand you correctly, you want to send this, or give this, file to other people for them to access on their computers and you don't want them to run into the "Enable Macros" question. Is that correct? If that is correct, there is only one way to do this. You must have each of them reduce the security level on their machine. There is no way for you to code something in your spreadsheet that will change their security level. It wouldn't make much sense to have a security level if a macro can change it. Also, you must be aware that the security level is a global setting and is not file-peculiar. Once they change their security level to "Low" for your file, that setting stays in their Excel for every file until they change it back. HTH Otto "Gordon C" wrote in message ... Hi...
