macros enabled marker

[Peter Kinsman]

Some while ago, I installed FnSendMailSafe in readiness for a monthly
emailing exercise. Last week the emailing database was altered to call
FnSendMailSafe but in the meantime the operator had always taken the option
to disable macros, so the call of FnSendMailSafe failed.
The operator notes have been updated but does anyone know whether there is
an accessible variable which shows whether macros are enabled please?

Many thanks

The VBA project status is in the registry in HKLM, it's a COM addin
registered under
HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Office\Outlook\Addins\Microsoft.VbaAddinForOutlook.1.
If LoadBehavior is set to 9 then VBA is loaded and enabled.

The various combinations of settings at
HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Office\12.0\Outlook\Security\ make up the various
macro settings. You can use a tool such as RegMon to find how those values
change as you change the various macro related settings. The "12.0" is for
Outlook 2007, adjust that for your own version, for example "11.0" for
Outlook 2003.

Thanks for the information Ken, but as I am running on someone else's
network, I think I will leave even reading the registry well alone.
