If "turned on" to you means Enabled, then yes it does, which I said twice last night is not possible to control, and others have told you the same thing last night and now again here tonight:

Security (such as it is) is handled at the local (computer) level, and if someone wants to make a copy of the workbook they will, in Explorer or other ways that are easily available totally outside of the workbook author's control.

there are no guarantees against piracy, intranet or not, and especially not possible to control the macro security settings of one computer from another.

This is no way to prevent a user from disabling macros, or a macro enabling macros. If this was possible then virus's could easily infect your system :wink:
Thne I gave you directions and code to take the macros out of a file and make a copy of that file so it has no code in it. That way you won't have to worry about th euser's security settings because the file you are sending them has no code, which you originally asked about.
Beyond that, maybe you need a platform other than Excel.
