HI JKPieterse
Thanks for responding so quickly.
Mac does have security options, but I have tried all those and Macro's still won't work.
cheers Kim
- JKPieterseAug 24, 2021Silver ContributorCan you set up a trusted location (in Excel, Options, Trust center)? If yes, does it work if you store the file in that location?
- KimcotAug 24, 2021Copper ContributorThere is no "Trust Center" in Office for the Mac.
I have tried > Tools > Security Options or Excel > Preferences > Security Options
the above has not allowed access to macros - can only save the file in Read Only mode
