Macro shortcut key & security

[Guest]

I have create macro command at work place. I use shortcut key (CTRL+M) to
perform the task. Save it into the doc file. Problem: macro command not
working when I press Ctrl+M at my home pc. But I check the macro, still
inside the document. Why cannot run it, because keyboard?

to enable macro, I should set security to low? must? any other way, because
worried about virus attack.

TQ

Hi param

Set it to medium, so each time you open up a template or document
containing VBA code, you are prompted whether you want to allow the code
or not.

OTOH, if it's your macro, you could use the Organizer (Tools | Templates
and Add-Ins, Organizer | Macro) to copy the macro to your normal.dot,
for instance.

this are the command I used:
running by using keyboard (ctrl+M)
--------------------------------------------------
Sub printreport()
'
' printreport Macro
' Macro recorded 4/1/2006 by param
'
With ActiveDocument.MailMerge
.Destination = wdSendToNewDocument
.SuppressBlankLines = True
With .DataSource
.FirstRecord = wdDefaultFirstRecord
.LastRecord = wdDefaultLastRecord
End With
.Execute Pause:=False
End With
End Sub

Did you assign the keyboard shortcut on your home PC, too?

Did you save the shortcut into your doc file as well? The default save
location is normal.dot on your work computer.

Security set to medium will be sufficient. When you open the document, you
will be alerted to the presence of macros and given the chance to enable
them (or not).
