Enable Disabled Macros.

[Thomas]

I have written a macro, but can't get it to work. When I
run it, a message box comes up, telling me that my macros
are disabled.

I changed the security settings, but that did not work.
The online help says to open the document with the macros
enabled.

How do I enable the macros.

Thanks!

Thomas

If you stored the macro in Normal.dot, I doubt that you would get this
message. If it's in a global template or add-in or another template, you
still should not get a message provided you have "Trust all installed
templates and add-ins" enabled on the Trusted Sources tab of Tools | Macro |
Security. If the macro is stored in a document, then you need to change the
security level from High to Medium in order to get a message that will allow
you to enable macros.
