Microsoft Word -Macros - Trust Centre

Trust Centre

A Trust Centre allows you to set security and privacy Settings for a wide variety of options that include:

Macros Settings 
ActiveX 
Add-ins 
Message Bar 
Privacy Options.

Normally when an office document is opened that contains macros, the macro will be blocked. This is not a bad thing as you may have received the macro from a third party that may contain a virus.

Word will notify you automatically that it has blocked a macro so that you are able to check the macro VBA code before you run the macro.

If you create macros on a regular basis however you do not wish to have you macros blocked as you know they are not a threat to you.

It is possible to create what is called a trusted folder, any office documents that are saved in a trusted folder will not be blocked.
