error message from lost certificate

[brian]

hello,
quick question about VBA and certificates.
we have signed a bunch of documents with a certificate. the certificate has
expired. and now we are running a batch job on some groups of documents
that have been signed. when running the batch job we are getting message
boxes for each documet:
"there was a problem with the digital certificate. the vba project could
not be signed. the signature will be discarded."

loosing the cert if fine. i would like to know if we can turn off this
message. so the batch jobs can run uninterrupted? something in word
settings? something in the registry?

thanks for any help

Try turning your macro security level down to low.

yea, tried that. but the message box still comes up.
i have tries all 4 macro security levels.
plus some of the word options
i still get the message box coming up

also in my code when i save the document i looked for a silent save. but
nothing would work.

is there ay way to stop this message box?

Hi Brian,

The only possibility of which I'm aware that COULD help would be to set
DisplayAlerts on the Application object. That doesn't suppress all message
boxes, however.
