Blocked Content Message
I am attempting to work on an Excel spread sheet that is located in Dropbox. I am receiving a message "Blocked Content Macros in this document have been disabled to help keep you safe." It is a trusted document. How do I unblock it?

HI Paul_Green
click on enable macro, if you don't find the enable macro then follow the steps
File > Option > Trust Center > Trust Center Settings > Macro Settings > Disable Macro With Notification

I am having a similar problem. We have an Excel file in a Dropbox folder. I am able to open it and run the macros. However, another person, opening the same file from their computer, receives the message that the macros are blocked to keep you safe. There is no button to allow the macros to run. In the Trust center settings, we both have block but notify selected. However, because the other person couldn't get the macros to run on her computer, she had setting at run all macros. Still, the message comes up when she opens the file and there is no way to run the macros. This is Office 365.
- To clarify, earlier she had it set to run all macros. Now, it's set to block but notify, like mine.
