Enabling macro

[Fay]

Using VBA how can I cause PPT03 to automatically enable macros? I will be
going to presentations within my network.

Thank you Fay

Do you mean change other machines security settings remotely from your
machine? Sorry but no, that would completely remove security, something a
hacker would enjoy far too much.

No can do...

When I develop a PowerPoint presentation CBT for someone using VBA, I make
sure each user is aware of the requirement to:

1. Open PowerPoint, click "Tools", "Macro", "Security", change to MEDIUM.
2. Open the CBT presentation and click "Enable macros'. Run the CBT.
3. Feel free to set security back to HIGH after completing the CBT.

I am setting up a network of various classes so I get to my material from
where ever I am at. So I have a main switchboard that links to my Orientation
material. So it is just me internally going from one programs to another. I
would prefer not to have to enable macros when I am clicking a button on one
presentation to go to another. If the presentation was opened up "normally" I
would still want to be asked about enabling macros.

Thanks. Fay

I assume that your presentations DO contain macros? If so, no way around it
other than to set the security to LOW. If not, are you getting a warning
message when linking to another presentation? You might want to check each
of these out as well:
