Word provides the macro virus warning when I open files that may contain macros, except when I open files from my templates folder. Why the difference?
A. Word assumes that you know the files that you have saved to your templates folder. It also assumes that you know these files are safe. With this assumption, Word does not provide the macro virus warning when it detects macros contained in files from your template folders. The template folders that Word uses are defined by the User Templates and Workgroup Templates settings as specified in the File Locations tab in the Options dialog box.
