    Message Pop up re: Macros

    Hi,
    A spreadsheet i have has suddenly started giving me a message advising me:

    'Macros in this project are disabled. Please refer to the online help or documentation of the host application to determine how to enable macros'

    Every time i change data in any cells and then use the Tab or Enter key to move on this pops up.
    I haven't recorded any macros and don't understand what might have changed. I though it might be related to a server outage we had, but other spreadsheets are not affected. Is it something within the spreadsheet or Excel itself?

    Any help appreciated!

    Hello
    Right-click on your worksheet tab and select view code
    Delete all lines appearing in the right window pane.
    Exit Visual Basic Editor and save your workbook.

    Hi, Tried it but no joy. There is no code in the right hand box under the right-hand drop down General, but there is this under Worksheet.

    Private Sub Worksheet_SelectionChange(ByVal Target As Range)

    End Sub


    If i try and delete this it takes me back to the blank General sheet!

    I don't pretend to know what i'm doing and i'm not about to start

    delete means to highlight the code and touch the delete key or just
    backspace until gone.Then save and try again.

    I was doing just that.

    It lets me delete, save and go back to the workbook, but the message is still there when i try to change cell content. If i then go back to the code for that sheet it's back again. Do i need to do it for every sheet in the workbook before saving? - My VBA knowledge is limited, i'm afraid!

    any other thoughts?!

    Solved it. Changed Macro security from High to Medium.

    Thanks all for your suggestions
