How do I turn off macro warnings?
 

I'm running a macro in Excel from within Access using Automation. I'm new to
Automation and I figured out how to open and close an Excel workbook using
Access VBA. I want to format the data in the Excel workbook to currency
after a transferspreadsheet action from Access. So I wrote a little fomat
macro in Excel to run at the open event. In Access, I open the workbook and
the immediately close it just to run the format macro. The problem is, I
can't figure out how to turn the macro warning off. I just want to run the
macro without the user having to click "Enable Macros". Anyone know how to
turn those warnings off?

Thanks,

Jeff.

The short answer is you can't turn security warnings off. If you could then
anyone who wrote a virus would just turn them off. You can have every one
turn their security down to low but this would potenetially allow a virus to
get into the system. You can also look at digital signatures or trusted
sources. This starts to get a little dependant on your version of Excel so I
can't really comment further...

In Excel, go to Tools Macro Security. And set the security to low.
High won't run any Macros. Medium gives the message you have. And Low
doesn't do anything, allows to to run any code. NOTE: This setting stays
on the value you set. If you set it to low now, it will stay low for all
workbooks, until you manually change it.

I just stumbled on to the NG today and have been doing a lot of
"catch-up" reading. I do all my Excel programming via ooRexx ActiveX
and I have to take exception to Jim's statement "you can't turn
security warnings off". application.displayalerts = false sure turns
it off for me.
