Wow, thanks a lot. I have found so many ways to solve this problem, but none of these worked.
Now, I have tried out your version and it’s great. The problem does not longer exist!

You’re awesome 🙂

I usually don’t post messages, let alone in response to one that is over three years old, but you literally just saved me from jumping off a bridge. Thanks.

Dave, It just means that you have no Modules, nor Forms and you should not have the message at file opening announcing that you have macros to execute. It means that the file is already purged and you don't need this tip. Or do you have the message still? This would mean that there is another possible cause that I do not currently know and should be investigated too. Let us know.

I’m trying to follow directions but knowledge gaps remain. Please help.

Browser has ‘VBAProject (filesname)’ at the top of menu tree. Indented items under it are ‘Module1’, the sheet names and ‘ThisWorkbook’. No sign of the forms or class modules folders.

Dave, if you follow the steps, you will be presented with a short list of folders and you just have to look in the list of 2 or 3 folders.

Great post but how does a rookie find the forms folder? Class modules folder?

Thanks.

Thanks a lot for that great tip, guy!!!

I was looking for this for a looong time (but with a portuguese search). I ask your permission to translate this to users from Brazil and other Portuguese readers.
