I'm running out the door so didn't edit this from my personal tech tips, but I believe the information you need is here. Bill To turn off or change security (macro blocking) go to tools/macro/security and set. If the security tab is not there then you must go to customize and set it up/ tools/customize/commands then rearrange commands then in the menu bar drop down find tools!Macro and select Then select add find security and double click. Move to where you want it and say OK from MS Help Change the security level for macro virus protection Show All Hide All Security Because macros can contain viruses, be careful about running them. Take the following precautions: run up-to-date antivirus software on your computer; set your macro security level to high; clear the Trust all installed add-ins and templates check box; use digital signatures; maintain a list of trusted publishers. On the Tools menu, point to Macro, and then click Security. If you do not see the Macro menu item under the Tools menu, or the Security menu item under the Macro menu, click the arrows at the bottom of a drop-down menu to display the hidden menu items. Tip If you want to see all menu items by default, on the Tools menu, click Customize, click the Options tab, and select the Always show full menus check box. I still can't see the Security command under the Macro menu On the Tools menu, click Customize, and then click the Commands tab. Click Rearrange Commands, select Menu Bar, and in the Menu Bar box, click Tools | Macro. In the Controls section, click Add. The Add command dialog box will appear. In the Categories box, click Tools, and then in the Commands box, click Security. The Security command will appear in the Controls box. Use the Move Up and Move Down buttons to position the Security command where you want. If you'd like to position the Security command in its own group (between horizontal lines), with Security selected, click Modify Selection and click Begin a Group. Select the menu item below the Security command, and repeat. Click Close twice.

He Put the back end of the app I developed on the server, and a copy of the front end on the three clients. Two work OK after he got the security warning and went Tools --> Macro --> Security and lowered the security. But on the third machine there's no 'Security' choice on the Macro sub menu. Not even grayed out. Anyone seen this before and know how to fix it? (I have but I can't remember because I'm old and forgetful).
