Re: Word Blocked Macros
Doug_Robbins_Word_MVP Some additional findings and remarks. Without having any Word document open, Access opens Word without any problem and the macro is executed correctly. If I open an empty Word document before calling Word from Access, the macro error appears. After the error, it’s no problem to execute the very same macro form the empty Word document I opened before. For me this confirms that the problem isn’t in my Access coding. We run everything locally on a PC. No Internet, no network server. Nevertheless Access starts with an error message stating “Execution form server failed”. This is strange because we don’t use any server. I have added screen captures. I use all software in Dutch, but you’ll see what I mean. I am sure you will agree, that these messages are strange not using any files from Internet nor from any other server or network.11KViews0likes3CommentsRe: Word Blocked Macros
Doug_Robbins_Word_MVP Still struggling here with the same problem. We call Word from Access. So I’ll have to contact Microsoft or Microsoft. We found that the error message doesn’t appear, when closing all open Word documents before invoking the macro while opening Word from Access. If there is any open Word document (either opened from Access or some other Word document), the macro error reappears. Probably that’s why Villi_B only gets the error message from the second document onwards (see Villi_B above).

Hola guifernandes1607 no replies sofar. That's worrying. Same problem here, except we use a Microsoft Access application instead of Protheus. It was all working without problems for at least 3 years until the 1st of September 2022. Our invoices are generated from Access using a Word template on a local PC and a Word macro on the same local PC. No Internet, no Intranet, no network shares. The PC has “Microsoft Office Professional Plus 2021” installed. I read that Microsoft would prevent execution of macros originating from the Internet in this version as from September 2022. Nevertheless our local macro (embedded in Normal.dotm) was blocked with the same error messageyou got : “Microsoft Office has identified a potential security issue. Microsoft has blocked macros from running because the source of this file is not trusted. File Path: C:\Users\(username)\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows\INetCache\Content.Word\~WRC????.tmp” We tried everything you tried: -add template folder to trusted locations -add destination folder to trusted locations -add C:\Users\......\INetCache\Content.Word” to trusted locations (not allowed) -enable all macros (not recommended). To no avail. Apparently their latest update wasn’t tested very well. ;-((. Please let me know, when you find a sulution.11KViews0likes0Comments
