Encryptions or the permission restriction

Post by ABabeNChrist »

I’m using Office 2007 and I have this workbook that will not run macros, when I open the workbook I receive a security warning.

and this

My macros are set to enable, so I know that’s not the problem.
How do I remove the encryptions or the permission restriction of this workbook?

Let me see if I understand the article:
  • If I create a VBA application (WD,XL,PPT) in Office 2007
  • And password-protect it
  • And save it in Office 2007 format encrypted format (.XLSM)
    ...
  • And email it to a person who is not using an "approved" scanner, then the macros are disabled?
Just curious as to how many scanners wouldn't meet the Microsoft API standards.
