How do I enable my macros because I can't copy and paste

[Obi]

Whenever I try to paste in my word document, this message comes up saying
that my macros is disabled. I went through the word options to enable it but
it still will not work

The bigger question would be why Word is trying to run a macro rather than
the built-in paste command. Are you using an add-in that has modified the
paste command? Or, do you perhaps have a virus, and Word's built-in
protection is preventing that macro from doing any damage.

For enabling macros... after you enable macros, you might need to close and
reopen Word (if you're using Word 2003 as your Outlook editor, you might
need to close and restart Outlook as well). But, do this only if you're
positive there is no virus.
