macros got disabled

Guest

Thanks for any help.
I was testing some code in Outlook, and somehow I hung the computer, and
when I restarted Outlook, I could no longer run macros, I got a disabled
message. But when I checked About MS Outlook>Disabled Items>it doesn't say
VBA is disabled. When I click on Tools>Macro>Security and change from high to
medium or low, and then do a Tools>Macro>Security again, it is set back at
high.
I searched on this site for disabled related messages, but it seems all the
answers do the above. Any ideas?
Thanks again.

You must restart Outlook after changing the macro security setting.

Thanks Sue,
But after I do a Tools>Macro>Security and set to medium or low, and close
Outlook, then restart Outlook, and check it again with Tools>Macro>Security,
it is set back at high. Even if I don't close Outlook, but do a
Tools>Macro>Security right after setting it to medium or low, it is back at
high. I did a right click on mycomputer, manage>groups>, and I am listed as
an administrator. Any ideas?
Thanks-Ian

Make sure Outlook has completely shut down before you start it up again. Check in Task Manager. Some program may be holding it open.
