Questions and Answers on Excel Macros
Level: Intermediate
Topic: Macros not showing?
Question:
I get a macro warning in my workbook but when I go to Tools> Macro> Macros (Excel prior to 2007) or Developer/Macros (Excel 2007 and on), I see no macros listed. Is there another place to look?
Answer:
Some developers do not want to make some of their administrative macros available in the "Macro" dialog window. To do so they add "Option Private Module" at the top of a module code window. They may call this module modAdm (for example). If the whole project is protected with a password (lesson 10) then these macros can only be used by someone who knows the password.
