Warning message about potentially non safe ActiveX controls
Hi,
I write applications with Excel (Office 2003). Initially I used Excel 2000 and Win2K, when I upgraded to WinXP I also changed for Office 2003. Because my applications are distributed to family and friends, I include my personnal certificate (SelfCert.exe) to avoid having to accept to run the macros each and every time a spreadsheet is launched. This way, we only have to accept once and every other application I develop will execute without any question... This was true until I changed for XP and Office 2003. In fact, since that time, I receive this message : (translated from french) "This application is about to initialize potentially non safe ActiveX controls . If the source of this file is known to be reliable, click on OK to initialize the controls with the active workspace parameters." But then, even if I click on Ok or Cancel, this leads to the same result... the application runs and the controls work fine anayway ! So why this warning and how could I get rid of it ? If someone could help me with this issue, I would greatly appreciate. Pierre |

Warning message about potentially non safe ActiveX controls
At one time a registry entry helped with this problem. I seem to recall
that it is not so reliable, maybe because of service releases. No harm in trying it though. Under: HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\11.0\E xcel\Security create this new dword entry: DisableHyperlinkWarning and set its value to 1. If that does not do it I don't have another answer. -- Jim "Pierre Archambault" wrote in message ... | Hi, | | I write applications with Excel (Office 2003).
