    Macro security issue - unable to save as macro enabled sheet

    Hi experts,

    I have experienced an issue with saving my sheet as a Macro enabled file.

    I tried to check the boxes in the Trust Center to enable all Macros and Trust VBA in Excel.

    However, every time when I create a new VBA module, when saving it, Excel always notifies me the file is going to be saved in a Macro-free workbook.

    My question is:

    The file is set to trust Macro and VBA, why when saving VBA a window still pops up saying the file is not Macro enabled?

    How can I resolve this issue?

    I simply want to create a Macro, save it and use it.

    Please understand my frustration...

    Re: Macro security issue - unable to save as macro enabled sheet

    Go save it as a Macro Enabled Workbook (XLSM) using the Save option in the workbook - not the VBA editor.

    Once you do that, it will be saved correctly when clicking Save in the VBA editor.

    @ cytop, I think they already did that

    @ agadge123
    after you have done the setting to allow macros, close excel, reopen and try again
    1. Use code tags for VBA. [code] Your Code [/code] (or use the # button)
    2. If your question is resolved, mark it SOLVED using the thread tools
    3. Click on the star if you think someone helped you

    Thank you so much for the comments!

    One more small request here:

    Every time when I save my file, a window like below pops up, could you see if anything efforts I can stop this window from displaying again and again?

    Thank you!
