Default ??Programmatically set security level to medium

Using Excel 2000, can I programmatically set the macrossecurity setting to
medium on open? Hunted high and low (pardon the pun) but can't seem to find
anything that specifically says "no", although "yes" hasn't really come up
either!

For anything that can be done interactively, try doing it while the macro
recorder is on. You'll see it doesn't record anything, so the likelihood is
high that you can't do this.

Hi
in addition to Harlan's answer: If you would be able to do this
programmatically which would undermine the security purpose of this
feature (weak as it is). So no where should be no way to do this (and
there is none)

Never say never. Actually it can be done with SendKeys, and there's no way
to prevent that.
