View source for Adding a Trusted Location in Microsoft Excel

== Overview ==

BudgetLink has workbooks that require installing '''Ribbons''' and enabling '''Macros''' to work. 

A '''Trusted Location''' allows Excel to recognise the files as being '''Safe'''. 

Adding a '''Trusted Location''' in Excel will ensure that BudgetLink starts automatically rather than needing to '''Enable Macros''' each and every time.

In addition, on some machines, adding a '''Trusted Location''' will prevent BudgetLink compile error. 

== Adding a trusted location automatically when first starting BudgetLink ==

The first time you start BudgetLink, you will be prompted to add a '''Trusted Location''' automatically. We strongly recommend you choose to do so.

== Adding a trusted location manually ==

Alternatively, if you prefer adding the trusted location yourself, follow these steps.
