Run a macro
 

Security  Because macros can contain viruses, be careful about running them. Take the following precautions: run up-to-date antivirus software on your computer; set your macro security level to high; clear the Trust all installed add-ins and templates check box; use digital signatures; maintain a list of trusted publishers.

  1. On the Tools menu, point to Macro, and then click Macros.
  2. In the Macro name box, click the name of the macro (macro: An action or a set of actions that you can use to automate tasks. Macros are recorded in the Visual Basic for Applications programming language.) you want to run.

    If the macro doesn't appear in the list, select a different document or template (template: A file or files that contain the structure and tools for shaping such elements as the style and page layout of finished files. For example, Word templates can shape a single document, and FrontPage templates can shape an entire Web site.) in the Macros in box.

  3. Click Run.
