can I get the immediate window in Access 2007 VBA to work without enabling
macros?

When I try to test functions in the immediate window I get an error message
saying macros are not enabled in the project.

I don't use macros so I don't want to enable them just to get the immediate
window to work (although if I have to, I have to)


PS Has anybody else noticed that MS thinks the way to make their programs
more secure is to make them unusable?

Thank you for the response and apologies for the mispost.

Microsoft security comes in two flavours:
-none
-such complete and utter rubbish that everyone turns it off (i.e. none)

can anyone in Redmond spell "security"?

No. The Immediate window runs VBA code, which requires that macros be enabled.

Also note that you posted in an Outlook forum, not an Access forum.
