Hello,

I have made an excel workbook that contains macros and a button that activates the macros. I wanna upload this excel to a website, so multiple people can download it and use it with the macros.
Everytime I click the button from a different computer than the one I made the excel, I get the following message:

Cannot run the macro "MyExcel .xlsm'Ark5.Hide_Unhide'. The macro may not be available in this workbook or all macros may be disabled.
I have followed many advices such as the Add-ins, Macro settings, ActiveX settings and Trust Center options, as well as going to the Security information, but nothing has worked so far.





All the answers out there talk about sending the macro through an email, but i dont want 2 seperate files, just one excel with enabled macros.
Additionally it would be great to have my excel have some protected cells, and still have the macros running, but I should make a seperate thread about it.
 

Excel Facts

When did Power Query debut in Excel?
Although it was an add-in in Excel 2010 & Excel 2013, Power Query became a part of Excel in 2016, in Data, Get & Transform Data.
Right click on the file itself and go to Properties. Then check in the Unblock checkbox and say okay.

I have a similar problem. my properties window does not include an "unblock" field. Is there a trick to getting it displayed? (not sure if this is my problem.)
