Excel Shortcut - Macro Security
August 23, 2017 - by Bill Jelen
I love VBA macros in Excel. But if I give someone a small macro, and if you've never used macros, you need to enable macros on your copy of Excel. Today, a keyboard shortcut to make this simpler.
Change Macro Security with Alt + T, M, S. Activate Add-Ins with Alt + T, I
These are really useful now that the settings are buried deep in Excel options.
Thanks to Ron de Bruin for sending in this idea.
