    Hi Team, I have a existing .xlsm file which I was able to open in older excel versions(like 2010) successfully. But i am unable to open the same .xlsm file in newer office versions 2016.OPening as blank. Tried changing the settings under Excel->File->Options->Advanced Under "General" ->Unchecking the "DDE" Under "Display :" ->Unchecked the "Disable hardware graphics acceleration" ->Turn off add-ins. Anyone faced this issue ? Any help will be really appreciated. Thanks in advance. Thanks Manju

      Does this have anything to do with Visual basic programming?

        You can't open or you can't open with macros enabled option? Please, see: [Change macro security settings in Excel - Excel](https://support.office.com/en-us/article/change-macro-security-settings-in-excel-a97c09d2-c082-46b8-b19f-e8621e8fe373)

          As most macros are written in VBA I would assume this is the closest forum, we don't have an Office forum thankfully.

            True, but the question does not mention any macros.
