Remove Access Macros Safely
Budget: $30 – $250 USD
My company’s latest IT security update has disabled every macro inside an MS Access database that I rely on daily. The database still opens, but any action that once depended on a macro is blocked. I need the file cleaned of macros altogether while keeping the reporting features fully operational.
The task is straightforward: strip out or rewrite every macro so the database complies with Microsoft’s new security rules, test the result under current Office settings, and hand back a version that lets me run the existing reports without interruption. If VBA or embedded queries are the right replacement, go ahead—as long as no macro warnings appear afterward.
I will judge success on two points: no macros remain (or trigger), and every original report runs exactly as before. When you send your proposal, briefly highlight similar Access projects you’ve handled so I know you have the experience to get this done quickly.
