Install Support For Macros Or Controls

While opening some documents the following warning message appears: 'The function you are attempting to run contains macros or content that requires macro language suppport. When this software was installed, you (or your administrator) chose not to install support for macros or controls.'

Record, edit and play back mouse and keyboard macros. Often the the best way to solve a problem is to download the latest version of Macro Express. Nov 20, 2015. Require macro language support. To install support for macros or controls.'

If I hit okay twice the document opens, but when I try to close it the message appears again, followed by the message that 'Changes have been made that affect the global template, Normal.dot. Do you want to save these changes?' Afraid to say yes, I say no and the document closes. Thanks once again for your help.

Visual Basic for Applications should have been installed by default, but in case it hasn't re-run Office setup again and check. If it is shown as installed, uninstall it. OK out of the dialog, then re-install it again. This should fix the registry entries.

(You will probably need the original Office installation CD) You are presumably getting the error because you are trying to open a document that contains macros? If you copy the error message into Google you will find some other possible causes.

Macropod 08:12. Hi Abradaxis, OK, so someone did a custom Office 2000 installation and chose not to install macro support. You can rectify that via Add/Remove Programs in the Windows Control Panel - you may need the original installation CDs. You also mentioned upgrading. If you're upgrading to a later version of Office (eg 2003/2007), you shouldn't need to add the macro support to Office 2000 beforehand. Just do a custom installation with the upgrade and be sure to install all the options you'll need at that time.

Applies To: Excel 2010 For forms and ActiveX controls, you can do the following: • Perform an action or operation when a user clicks a form control by assigning a macro to it. • Run Microsoft Visual Basic for Applications (VBA) code to process any events that occur when a user interacts with an ActiveX control. What do you want to do? Add or edit a macro for a form control • Right-click the control, and then click Assign Macro.

The Assign Macros dialog box appears. • To specify the location of an existing macro, select where the macro is located in the Macros in box by doing one of the following: • To search for the macro in any workbook that is open, select All Open Workbooks. Note: If the macro that you want to assign to the control is in a separate workbook, open that workbook first so that it will be available in the Macros in list box. • To limit the search for the macro to the workbook that contains the current worksheet, select This Workbook. • To limit the search for the macro to a specific workbook, select that workbook from the list of available open workbook names.

• Do one of the following: Assign a macro Do one of the following: • Record a new macro Click Record, and when you finish recording the macro, on the Developer tab, in the Code group, click Stop Recording. • Assign an existing macro Double-click a macro in the list or enter its name in the Macro name box. • Create a new macro Click New and then, in the Visual Basic Editor, write a new macro.

I'm running a newly installed Office 2010 installation on a Windows XP machine, but whenever I try using some of its features, like equations in Word, I get this message: The function you are attempting to run contains macros or content that requires macro language support. When this software was installed, you (or your administrator) chose not to install support for macros or controls. I have tried reinstallig, and opening the control panel to add Visual Basic to Office's characteristics. Of course when installing, I didn't disable macros at all (to my knowledge) I've tried almost all solutions listed on forums found by searching the problem on Google. I came across your question when trying to solve this myself, because I messed in the registry some time ago and I remember that I had disabled VBA a while ago without know that this would disable equations.

Dell Latitude D600 Audio Drivers Win7 Upgrade. This approach worked for me: • Make sure that the Visual Basic for Applications feature of Office is installed. • Make sure that there is no VbaOff entry in the registry under the Office key. However, if the problem lies deeper (more likely for you), you need to: • Completely remove Office. • Remove the Office keys from the registry which were left behind (seach for Office keys). • Do a full non-customized installation of Office, or at least make sure that VBA is installed along.
