I have an application that, if run on 2007, there is some kind of Security Alert message which has to do with Macros and/or ActiveX controls. Users must know how to activate these controls or the Macros will not work. Is there a way to avoid having manually 'Enable the Content' for Macros to run? How to do this in 2003 and 2007?
 

Excel Facts

Formula for Yesterday
Name Manager, New Name. Yesterday =TODAY()-1. OK. Then, use =YESTERDAY in any cell. Tomorrow could be =TODAY()+1.
It's more of an alert message and an error message. But, there is user involvement required. I tried to get a screen print but it won't paste here. The message goes something like this:

Security Alerts - Multiple Issues

Macros & ActiveX
Macros and one or more ActiveX controls have been disabled. This active content
might contain viruses or other security hazards. Do not enable this content unless
you trust the source of this file.


Then it follows two radio button options:

0 Help protect me from unknow content (recommended)
0 Enable this content


Users will have to select the 'Enable this content' in order for the macros to run.
