Why is my TOOLS|OPTIONS|SECURITY Tab missing in Visio 2007?

[Nebulous]

I was following some instructions for enabling COM add-ins and it said to go
to TOOLS | OPTIONS and then the Security Tab. I don't have such a tab. The
tabs I have are VIEW, GENERAL, SAVE/OPEN, UNITS, SHAPE SEARCH, and ADVANCED.

I do have administrative rights, so if there's something I need to do,
please let me know.

Thanks,

Nebulous

Paul:

This post is not correct for Visio 2007.

Hello Nebulous,

It is as far as I can see. Are you saying that you cannot see the Trust
Center... menu item under Tools?

What part of the post do you feel is not correct?

Best regards

John

Do you also have other Office 2007 applications installed?
Are you running on a network with a domain controller?

Paul (and John):

My apologies. I read to quickly and didn't read far enough. That was exactly
the solution.

I still find references to TOOLS | OPTIONS | SECURITY TAB in the Visio Help
files, such as in an article called "What happened to the UML menu?" and
others.

Thanks again!

There should be a set of "Was this information helpful?" buttons. Click the
No button and explain what is wrong. That should get the Help corrected.
