Is a signed certificate necessary to run macros in a marketed file?

[Michael Lanier]

I have created a macro enabled business program I intend to market.
It will be distributed on CDs and not on the internet. I know nothing
of the process required for obtaining certificates and would very much
appreciate some simplified guidance. What little I've read seems
overly complicated and applicable primarily to internet downloaded
files. Can you offer some easy-to-understand help? Thanks.

You are most likely better off and more secure distributing a COM
add-in.
