Default enable macros

I have some macros to save attachments from my emails. When I try to use
them they won't work and I get a message that I need to enable macros. Using
MSOutlook 2003 with a clean install (got hopelessly hijacked!!). Can someone
please tell me where to enable the use of my macros.
Thanks so much
Joanne

Default enable macros

Tools, Macro, Security. I would set to Medium and then enable macros when
prompted when you start Outlook or run a macro.

Default enable macros

I am having trouble with this too. I want to create a message rule that finds
messages from a specific sender, that have an attachment, and then have the
rule run a script to save the attachment.

I get through the rules setup to where I tell the rule to run a script.
However, I can't find my scripts when I try to set this portion of the rule.
I wrote a simple VBA test script on a Module, but it doesn't show up in the
Select Scipt dialog box.

What am I doing wrong? Have Security set to Medium as you instructed in your
last reply.
