�� You can force enable content in excel and enable macros automatically for some, but not others, by following the instructions in this video. When you write advanced ecel macros for other user’s benefit you often want Excel to enable content without warning. It can be frustrating to get the Excel macros have been disabled warning because it will stop your Excel VBA code from working, unless the user clicks the Enable Content or Enable Macros button. You can use excel trusted locations to enable some macros automatically but not all. In a corporate environment you may have the same excel trusted locations for all users so by placing a file in this location you will enable macros automatically for this one file. You can’t enable some macros automatically but not others when they are within the same spreadsheet, but you can enable some, but not all, macros automatically when they are in sperate files as those files with excel trusted locations will enable macros automatically. Excel will remember this option and next time enable content without warning and stop the excel enable content warning / macros have been disabled warning. This is one way to force excel to enable content.

�� Microsoft Help Info:
You should use a trusted location to store a file when you don’t want that file to be checked by the Trust Center, or if you don’t want it to open in Protected View. This applies particularly to files with macros, data connections, ActiveX controls (what we call active content). If you think the active content in a file is from a reliable source, it’s better to move the file to a trusted location, instead of changing the default Trust Center settings to a less-safe macro security setting.

Add a trusted location
Click File – Options.
Click Trust Center – Trust Center Settings – Trusted Locations.
Click Add new location.
Click Browse to find the folder, select a folder, and then click OK.

Remove a trusted location
Click File – Options.
Click Trust Center – Trust Center Settings – Trusted Locations.
Select the location to be removed, and then click Remove, and then click OK.

Change a trusted location
Click File – Options.
Click Trust Center – Trust Center Settings – Trusted Locations.
In the Trusted Locations list, select a location, and then click Modify.

Make the modifications you want, and then click OK.

======================================================================================
You’ve written a spreadsheet that you want your colleagues to use and you don’t want them to be reminded that they need to enable macros just want all that to happen automatically and the method I’m going to show you in this video could be exactly what you tell you what your spreadsheets to open with macros automatically enabled but you don’t really want every other spreadsheet in the entire world to do the same how can you do that and this method I’m going to show you is particularly good if you’re in on the same network as other people that are going to be opening your spreadsheet and you’re opening it from the same location so at by default you’ll probably find that you’re being asked to enable macros so for example if I open this workbook here it’s a simple macro in it it’s that giving me a security warning I click to test that macro it’s not going to let me do it says it’s disabled that’s just a pain so what I’m going to do now is show you a way that you can get this to run automatically without that security warning for anyone who’s on the same network as you and who has access to the same locations.
