Macro Security
Most installations of Excel by default set the security level for macros on High. This means most macros will not run. When opening an Excel workbook with macros in it a message will pop up indicating that the macros have been disabled.
When this occurs you need to reduce the setting to either Medium or Low. Do this by clicking Tools | Macro | Security. Choose the Security Level you need and click OK. If you had already opened a file and need to use the macros then you will need to close and reopen it.
Once this setting has been set on your PC it will remain set for that user until you change it again.
