Default Bypassing the Security Warning when opening Excel file

No.

I got around it by digitally signing code and having my users add my to
their accepted digital signatures list.

It makes sense, if you could bypass it with code, there would be no macro
security!

Hi Dale:

Were you ever able to sucessfully code the bypassing of this annoying
macro
security message?

Thanks,

Ed.

Yeah, I was hoping there was a way to do this programmatically.
Something
like:

Set xlObj = CreateObject("Excel.Application")
xlObj.MacroSecurity = 1
....
xlObj.MacroSecurity = 3
xlObj.close

Give this a try.

Open Excel.

Hit tools, options, security

Set macro secutiry to low.

Exit excel.

Hopefully this change will be picked up when you import into access.

doing

there a
way to bypass this warning and disable the Excel macros
programmatically?
