Hi...

I'm having the following problem with Windows7 / Excel 2007: while running Excel macros are enabled with low levels of security, when I try to use them, I get a message informing me that due to the security level of macros to be high, should I change it to a lower level and restart Excel to be able to run it. Since I had already checked that the security level was set to a low level, I turn off or restart my pc and try again using the Macro. Sometimes I have to do this several times until the Macros to normal operation.

Does anyone have any idea what might be happening?


Thanks

Don't know really.:eek:

I have several strange thing following a windows update where things worked on first installation but do not now. Wasted a lot of hours on this. I have shared drive F on my Windows 7 machine on a home network. I am unable to run an .exe file on that drive from the Win7 machine it is on, but can run an .exe from a Win XP machine that maps to it. Not a problem because it is really for shared data only.

I also have a problem with Trend Internet Security where the firewall stops all sorts of things happening on that drive - despite attempts by their tech support - which is generally good in comparison to others. I solved that by using Windows firewall instead. I still use Trend for antivirus etc. for which it is extremely reliable according to magazine reviews.

So I suggest you first try the file on a different drive, and then try temporarily turning of firewall & antivirus to see if there is an improvement.
