Hi,
I’ve got some spreadsheets that contain macros that I would like to delete. The reason I want to delete them is that the shortcut keys are really annoying, for example every time I use CTRL+F it tries to run a macro and I get an error message, “The macro xxxxxxxxx could not be found”.
<?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com
ffice
ffice" /><o
> </o
>
I have looked in the ALT+F8 menu and I can see the macros in there but when I click on them I get an error saying “Reference not valid”.
<o
> </o
>
I have also checked every sheet of every open workbook (and my personal workbook) in the
VBA window but I cannot see a single line of code!!
<o
> </o
>
I have tried changing the shortcut keys but every time I restart my machine they come back!
<o
> </o
>
It seems to me that the macros were a legacy from older versions of the spreadsheets and have been deleted but for some reason the shortcuts are still there.
<o

Does anyone know how I can delete these shortcuts once and for all??!

Many thanks in advance for your help.
