anymore
looked up help but can't find simple "to turn macros on"
any help appreciated
thanks

Have you tried closing and reopening the file?

Yes plenty of times it said that macros should open when Excel does but
this hasn't happened When it opens bottpm left corner states asking for
virus scans ! could this be stopping it?

Is your Excel security level set to Medium? ( Tools>Macros>Security )
Perhaps one or more settings on your virus scanner need to be changed to
allow you to open the file with macros enabled?
