Our workbooks are protected. In order to use the workbooks you must enable macros. This worked fine until we started revamping for FY09. We have code in Thisworkbook that hides all sheets except for a warning page that states " you must enable macros". I found that I could make the following registry edit:
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\12.0\Excel\Security] "ExcelBypassEncryptedMacroScan"=dword:00000001 But that is not an option for us.. In tests if I open the workbook, see the warning screen, unprotect the workbook, then close it, and reopen it all is well. What can I do to keep my workbooks protected, yet, allow my users to enable macros when they open them? We have code in the workbooks to ensure they remain protected when the workbook is closed. I thought about removing that, and once they enable macros, protect the book, then leave it protected until they clse it, then unprotect, right beofre it actually closes. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ Visit the blog to download Excel tutorials at http://www.excel-macros.blogspot.com To post to this group, send email to excel-macros@googlegroups.com For more options, visit this group at http://groups.google.com/group/excel-macros?hl=en Visit & Join Our Orkut Community at http://www.orkut.com/Community.aspx?cmm=22913620 Visit the blog to download Excel tutorials at http://www.excel-macros.blogspot.com To Learn VBA Macros Please visit http://www.vbamacros.blogspot.com To see the Daily Excel Tips, Go to: http://exceldailytip.blogspot.com -~----------~----~----~----~------~----~------~--~---
