    Force the user to enable the macro

    I have Excel file that is linked to Access Database. Everytime the user opens the file, there is pop up message that warns the user we there to enable the macro or to disable it. I want to force the user to enable the macro or even better if I can make disappear this warning and automatically enable the macro. See attached for more details. Thanks.

    You can't keep the box from populating...this is a security procedure built in to ensure that a user understands that a macro exists - as some macros may be malicious in their intent. But...you can make them have to enable the macro in order to use the spreadsheet....check out this link.
