Allow Safe Macro

Dear All,

Can you please advise why i am getting the below popup message when trying to access some of my dashboards on the server ?

This problem is also affecting my nprinting reports when calling the dashboards.

Note that i have checked "Allow macro execution on server " and "Allow unsafe macro execution on server" and still i have the same problem everyday.

Your macro-window is independent from the qmc-settings because it's a end-user-setting if he/she want to allow the execution of macros or not - the logic is quite similar to the macro-handling by ms office.

Normally the user should have also have to enable the fourth option within this window "Always use this ..." which meant that the user-decision will be stored within the settings.ini in its user-profile and won't be asked again for it. Why it's greyed out I don't know.

It should work as per your settings, but just try your server settings whether it stops your job. like security/privacy settings etc... sometimes it may stop your job if it is blocked.

Before going to above said suggestion by Marcus, please do check from your side whether anyone of you have changed or modified the macros which was written earlier, if so save it and then open as it will always asks for allow macros whenever you modify something. this is just a check or thought from my side before going to settings.

I change the "macrolaunchconfirmation" from 0 to 1 as suggested in the link above in the settings.ini

Hope it works.

Thanks
