`How do I make a macro a trusted source, or get it digitally sign.
I have a mail merge document containing a merge macro on 8 fixed PC's on a
large hospital network. I would like the macro to run with Word set to high security because a continually varying number of users (doctors) invoke this macro document and I don't want to keep setting security level to Low on all User/PC site machines on a weekly basis. Declaring the documents (or macro, or both) as secure would seem to allow use of High Security, which is the network default. Can you suggest any good reading material on this matter as well please? |

Place the template containing the macro in the Word Startup directory. It
will then be loaded as an Add-in when Word is started. -- Please respond to the Newsgroup for the benefit of others who may be interested. Questions sent directly to me will only be answered on a paid consulting basis. Hope this helps, Doug Robbins - Word MVP "Johnsie at Newham Hospital" Johnsie at Newham wrote in message ...

Sorry, Doug, it doesn't seem to work, but thank you for your thoughts. The
effect seems to be that the macro becomes globally available but it still founders at security level on documents created from the template. The macro sequence will run unconditionally at 'Low,' alert me at 'Medium,' but still only loads and stares at me smugly doing nothing at 'High' security level!
