incrementing account numbers

Thanks

It seems to try and work, but I'm getting a message saying that macro's are
disabled because of a high security level and I can either lower it or
request that macros be digitally signed... What security? In excel or a
firewall or what?

Also, I forgot to meantion that in another cell the invoice number has to
appear. The cells are E 1 and E 19. Do I have to make two macro's?
