I'm not sure what happened or what my security settings need to be anymore. I had a workbook that I was rolling into a new year, all I did was saved the old workbook with a new name. When I try to run the macros I get a "Security Risk" warning and all my macros are blocked.

When I view the macros it looks like they're in the workbook, this is the only workbook I have open.

I have gone into VBA and deleted anything that was in there and then copied and pasted the old macros into the new workbook. Is there anything I can do to make this work or do I need to create a new workbook from scratch? The macros in the old workbook still work just fine.

Thanks for any help.
 

Excel Facts

Which lookup functions find a value equal or greater than the lookup value?
MATCH uses -1 to find larger value (lookup table must be sorted ZA). XLOOKUP uses 1 to find values greater and does not need to be sorted.
Hello.

Click with right button of mouse in the file, go to properties and unlock the macros there.

It's a checkbox on the bottom of the General tab.

Hope it helps
