Add-ins tab disappears
I have a template document in 2003 format that has a custom toolbar. When I
use the template to create a new document in 2007, the toolbar appears as an add-in. There is a warning bar that appears warning me that the macros have been disabled. Before I try to run a macro, if I click on the warning bar Options button and Enable the macros, the Add-Ins tab disappears! If I try to run a macro without clicking the Options button and enabling them, I get the message that my security is set too high. My only option, then is to set my Word security to Enable all macros. Then, all the macros work as they should. I need a dozen or so users to be able to access this template on a regular basis. Must I have them all set their 2007 Word programs to always allow all macros? Seems dangerous. |

Have you tried installing the template in a Trusted Location? That, coupled
with the right security settings, should get you what you need. Check Office button - Word Options - Trust Center - Trusted Locations. -- Herb Tyson MS MVP Author of the Word 2007 Bible Blog: http://word2007bible.herbtyson.com Web: http://www.herbtyson.com "KimC" wrote in message ...

Herb, Thank you for the help. That was all I needed to do. One other
question---Is My Documents always a Trusted Location by default? "Herb Tyson [MVP]" wrote: Have you tried installing the template in a Trusted Location?

No. By default, Word creates three trusted locations: User templates,
Application templates, and StartUp. My Documents isn't included by default... and for a good reason, since that's the default location where a lot of documents are stored. -- Herb Tyson MS MVP Author of the Word 2007 Bible Blog: http://word2007bible.herbtyson.com Web: http://www.herbtyson.com "KimC" wrote in message ...
