They are not run until I actively run them, in this case by cliocking a giant button in the spreadsheet. It shouldn't matter what it does, and there are more than one of them, but the most important one, for instance, reads the clipboard and extract the text part from it. Then it fills some cells (which ones is up the the macro to calculate) with some parts of that text. Anyway, the problem isn't the macro itself. The problem is that when I open one of those spreadsheets, Apache OpenOffice tells me that this spreadsheet contains macros (which it does), before even finished loading the spreadsheet at all. The dialogue then lets me open the spreadsheet with macros disabled… So I go into Macro security and add the path in which the link to the spreadsheet is located, close Apache OpenOffice and try again, and this time the macros are loaded properly without any error messages. I don't complain about the behaviour, actually I can see that this is how it should work. What I'm asking is WHY could I open them from that folder BEFORE yesterday? The document itself is stored as, let's say ~/some/path/spreadsheet.ods, but I open it by clicking ~/another/path/link_to_some_path_spreadsheet.ods. ~/some/path/ is added to the macro security paths list, ~/another/path/ is not. Before yesterday I could open the document by clicking the link, now I can't and I didn't change any settings within Apache OpenOffice. I think the correct behaviour is performed now and NOT before yesterday, but I don't understand why this happened. Bug? Is there another macro security setting elsewhere that I missed?
