Excel 2007 :: Security Notice Prompt
Apr 15, 2013
I am using excel 2007 to open files with macros embedded. Most of the time, I would receive the security notice in the ribbon but sometimes the notice would appear as a prompt as with excel 2003.
How can I set it up so I would always have the prompt instead of the message in the ribbon. The reason is that with the one in the ribbon, new users to 2007 often fail to activate the macro for the the file to work properly. With the prompt, users have to either enable or disable the macro to view the file.

is it possible through vba code to determine the macro security level of Excel 2007 and inform the user. I tried the code below , it is executed when the workbook is opened, but it doesn't work.The code below is executed only when the macro security level is "Low". My goal is at least to inform , with a msgbox function, to change manually the security level.
Code:
Dim secAutomation As MsoAutomationSecurity
Dim zLevel
As String
secAutomation = Application.AutomationSecurity
Select Case secAutomation
[Code]....

I'm trying to find out if there is a way to call the security alert to enable a macro. Let me explain...I was working on a sheet with a macro that I hadn't enabled yet. After working for awhile the option to enable it was gone and I found that I had to close the fine and re-open to enable the macro. I'm wondering if there is a ribbon or short cut icon to put in my access toolbar that will give me the option to enable/disable the macro. Seems strange that in 2003 I could to this, but in 2007 I have to close the file.

when sending an email in code from Excel through Outlook, the following Microsoft Office Outlook dialog appears during code execution in Office releases since 2002:
A Program is trying to automatically send e-mail on your behalf.
Do you want to allow this?
If this is unexpected, it may be a virus and you should choose "No".
Two buttons: [Yes] [No]
Question
Has anyone used or developed code that bypasses this prompt, and if so, would you please post an example of your code here. What I would like is a macro in VBA and / or API that you know from your own first-hand experience has worked for you, that emails an Excel attachment from Excel, using Outlook (not Outlook Express) as the email client, which bypasses the above prompt.....................

I have used the following Macro that deletes the Macro code. It then saves the file and quits excel.
*************************************
Sub removeAllCode()
Dim awi
Dim awcl As Integer
Dim count As Integer
Dim i As Integer 'loop counter
On Error Resume Next
count = ActiveWorkbook.VBProject.VBComponents.count
For i = 1 To count
Set awi = ActiveWorkbook.VBProject.VBComponents.Item(i)
awcl = awi.CodeModule.CountOfLines
awi.CodeModule.DeleteLines 1, awcl
Next i
Set awi = Nothing
ThisWorkbook.Save
Application.Quit
End Sub
*************************************
However when I open the Excel File, I still get the Macro Prompt. I have checked in Macro list as well as in VB Editor and no Macro code exists
If I have the file manually (or do a save as) and then reopen the file, I no longer get the Macro prompt.
I have tried various examples listed in different forums/sites but nothing works.

I open a spreadsheet or workbook that has links to other workbooks I am notified by the message bar that content has been blocked. I click Options > Enable this content > OK. Even if I don't make any changes I'm prompted to save changes when I close the file. If I hit Yes or if I hit No, I will still be prompted to enable content in the message bar the next time I open the same file.
I have changed the External Content settings in the Trust Center to "Enable all data connections (not recommended)" and "Enable automatic update for all workbook links (not recommended)" but I still get the messages.
My Message Bar is set to "Show the message bar in all applications when content is blocked" because I read on Microsoft KB that the other option of "never show information about blocked content" will still block the content, just not tell you about it, which doesn't fix my issue.
The files I'm opening and the files linked to and from them are all on the same shared drive on a file server in the office. Is there a way to tell Office '07 that our file drive is a trusted source by default?

I am relying on macros for a lot of functionality and security.
Is there a way to stop a spreadsheet from being opened/accessed if a user disables macros at the security prompt?

Its been a while since I did this on 2003 and needing a pointer on 2007.
Just needing a simple macro that opens the relevant folder from a hardcoded path to allow the user to manually select the file to be used.
This file will then be used to copy from and paste to another file.

I am creating a balance sheet for my company that seems pretty simple (date, transaction type, amount, and balance), except for one thing: 10 days before every bill is due (and before every purchase is made), expense amounts are supposed to show up in the balance sheet as a deduction from the current balance, so that the sheet projects what the balance will be in 10 days. Do I need a macro for that? If so, what would it look like? It needs to be blank if it's more than 10 days out, and then suddenly appear in the balance sheet once it's 10 days away from due date.

I have a workbook which i really want to protect. I don't want any formulas to be seen and tampered with.
Simply hiding/locking cells and protecting the sheet is not secure enough. within minutes of googling crack password, i was able to find a macro that unlocks the sheet.
Is there something out there that can really secure your workbook. I found something called XLS Padlock [URL].... seems great.

I have a cell (C16) that has a date format (such as 08/28/2014). I want the value of this cell to be "N/A" when cell C7 is "No". When C7 is "Yes", I want Excel to prompt the user to enter a date for C16 when they click on C16. The formula for cell C7 is =IF(C3="No","No","Yes"). That's where the value of C7="No" comes from. If I didn't need a date for the value of C16, the formula would be something like =IF(C7="No","N/A","______"). I have just recently started trying Excel macros due to a tool

I have a sheet that will not let me use macros. I can record them, but when I go to use them it says that the Macro security level is too high. I change it to Medium or Low but it doesn't make a difference.
The same spreadsheet works with Macros on another computer, but not my main one.

I have a spreadsheet that I regularly have to clear the data and start over on, so i recorded a macro for clearing this rather long sheet with only one cllick.
My problem is that i am not the only person who will use this sheet, if They click the control button by mistake they will clear their work and you cannot undo it. I was wondering if i could make it ask "are you sure" kind of like the save option when closing an unsaved document.

We have developed an Excel workbook with hundreds of lines of VBA code written for a specific application, and we would like to protect it.
Could someone give me an idea of what security options we have over and above the below (if any)?
We have protected all sheets and the workbook itself with passwords. The VBA itself is protected with a passoword.
My understanding is that VBA can be hacked into quite easily.....is there any way of adding another layer of security/protection without having to move to another platform altogether?

i am going to ask is for my curiosity only and to be sure that no one will break my password.
If the VBA module is locked for viewing and password protected, it can't be cracked??I asking this, because i made an excel application with macros, and i don't want the user of it to crack my password.
I have to mention that the password is 17 letter+spaces long.
I repeat again....i asked this ONLY for my application safety.

If there is code attached to a worksheet, not necessarily in a macro, does the macro security still have to be low to use it??

If I have a cell which has been validated and has a drop down list of 4 names in it.
I need it to prompt the user that when they choose there name and select, a window pop up or similar window appears asking for a 4 digit(or similar) code.
This is to stop others using peoples names against jobs they have completed so there is accountability if there are issues with information.
For each line I need it to re-prompt the user to enter the 4 digit pin so it cannot be tampered with.
Can anyone help with sending through a form and VB code possibly which I can copy into my spread sheet or a method I can use!

There are 2 cells on my spreadsheet where individuals must populate $ values. I want to put a security feature in the worksheet that would create a pop up warning to the user that one cell must be greater than the other.
B26 (Client Assets) must be greater than B41 (Dollar Impact), otherwise a dialog box pops up to indicate to the user that B41 cannot be greater than
B26.

I was playing around with Macros on an excel file. I created a few and ran them. In the end, I didn't like the way they ran, so I deleted them all. However since I ran them in the excel file, every time I open the file it gives me a warning saying
"Macros have been disabled."
Is there any way to remove the possible Macros ties/links from my file? I know I can disable the warning, but if I just want to remove the Macros ties to my file.

i have produced a spreedsheet on ms excel.
On sheet 2 is all of the information and tables etc.. for example prices and information for the combo boxes an such...i need to protect this sheet so no one can change anything on it
the problem is when i do so, and go back onto sheet 1 and say tick a checkbox or select something from the combo box is doesnt allow me to, the protection message comes up
i dont want this to come up on sheet 1, only on sheet 2!
i think its because i have links between the pages? like all of the info for the combo box is on sheet 2

I would like the security warning not to pop up when the workbook is opened. I have been able to turn it off for myself but I had someone else test it and each time it's opened the security warning pops up with the disable, enable messages. Is there a way to turn this off permanently so not matter who opens it it won't pop up?

My dad wrote me a VB programme to save me time entering repetitive data into an excel template for my business. At first it didnt work untilll i reduced security to low. Sice then I fried my computer and have had to reformat it with a diffirent version of windows, vista service pack 3. Now even on low security it doesnt work.
The little button in the worksheet to make the macro happen isnt visible or doesnt exist.

What would be the simplest VBA to determine if a cell E7 contains:
A federal ID always 9 digits with only one hyphen which is always after the 1st two numbers. For example: 12-3456789
or
A social security number always 9 digits with only two hyphens which are always 1 hyphen after the 1st 3 numbers & the other hyphen after the next 2 numbers. For example 123-45-6789.
In other words,
If Range("E7") = a federal id then
or
If Range("E7") = a social security number then

I have a security order list. This consist of several columns most important are
Column A Column B
Sec a 15,00
Sec b 14,50
Sec c 16,00
Sec a 15,10
Sec a 15,70
Sec b 16,70
Sec a 14,80
The first column gives the name of the security, the second column gives the bid price.
What I want is that I want to sort out all bid prices for a specific security. Vlookup works fine but again it just gives the first record. How can I get all bid prices for security a on a new worksheet without blank cells. If possible I would like to have it sorted as well.
