Macros

I have created a macro but when I want to run it I get the same error message......."Because of your security settings, macros have been disabled.To run macros, you need to reopen this workbook and then choose to enable macros".I have changed my settings via the excel options tab but I still can't run the macros - is there something else I should do?

RE: Macros

When you set your options...
You were in the trust center?
Is the message bar set to show the Message Bar in all applications? This will give the yellow bar that allows you to check that Enable.
Have you checked that the location is added to the trusted locations and that the Disable all trusted locations is not checked?

My experience with 2007 was that it didn't remember trusted locations regardless although this was corrected in 2010. My thought would be to make sure you have selected that you get the enable content message bar so you can make sure that you can enable it.

Excel tip:

Selecting blank cells within a range of data

Select the range of data which includes the blank cells that you would like to select. Press the F5 key, this will take you to the GoTo dialogue box where you can click on Special and then select Blanks.
