Hi,

    Oooh man, I'm NOT going to be a doctor in Security Settings - why not JUST tell us what to do to get it to work in Win11 ... it runs nicely in Win10 !

    OR ...

    maybe you HAVE to be a doctor in Security Settings to manage that stupid functionality 🤪

    claraallycapital  Excel has security settings that can block or enable macros. Go to "File" > "Options" > "Trust Center" > "Trust Center Settings" > "Macro Settings." Make sure that "Enable all macros"(not recommended; potentially dangerous code can run)" is selected. Be cautious when adjusting these settings, especially if you are working with macros from untrusted sources.

    I hope this helps!
