    Mcro security

    I am new to Access 2007 but when I go into an application I have to hit the option button to enable the macros. Otherwise nothing runs on the app. Any button I hit does nothing to I enable the macros, which is funny because I do not have any that I made. What Access has I do not know. In any case, if I am enabling the macro to use the applications, why do I not just go into the trust center and enable it permanently?
    I know this opens the application to macro viruses, but again if you have to enable it anyway, I am not sure I see the point.
    Can someone please let me know if they there would be a reason for not just permanently enabling them.
    Thank you

    I would suggest that most people using access will in fact enable macros in the trust center. Otherwise you will not be able to run most Access applications.
