When I use the "Accept Changes" or "Accept All Changes" in word documents w/
tracked changes, I get an error message telling me that my security settings
are too high to use this macro. This began happening w/ SP2!!

Any suggestions? I've gone through all of Microsoft's suggested fixes (like
lowering my security settings) to no avail. One would think that microsoft
wouldn't disable it's own macro!!

To my knowledge, it's not a macro, Brad. Are you sure that's when you get
the error? Are you sure that's the error you get?

Hi Brad,

If it *is* a macro that's intercepting the Accept commands, it's coming from
a non-Microsoft add-in, and you haven't enabled the option (in Tools > Macro
> Security > Trusted Sources) to "Trust all installed add-ins and
templates". Depending on what the add-in is, it may be appropriate to trust
it, or it may be better to remove it.

See http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/Customization/CheckIfAddinsInstalled.htm to
learn how to track down add-ins.
