Word 2003 Add in issue

[Guest]

In Word 2003, I installed a dictionary add in. My macro security setting is
set on high. When I start Word, Ithe add in won't work and I get an error
message that says to set security to medium, restart Word and then I can use
the add in. The box with trust installed add ins is check under trusted
sources. My problem is that each time I start Word, I get the same error
message if I leave security on high. I want to be able to enable the add in,
leave security on high and have it stay for the furture. How can I do this?

If the add-in is in the Office Startup folder rather than Word's or is a COM
add-in, then the "trust" setting won't cover it. If you set Security to
Medium so that you get a message allowing you to enable the add-in, there
may be a check box that allows you to trust the source. If so, you can add
it to your Trusted Sources and then reset the Security to High. FWIW, Medium
is high enough, since you always have the option of saying no to the macros
in any template or document.
