Save a macro excel file into a normal excel file to disable all macros using a macro in an excel report
It happens that I need to share my excel file but I don’t want the others to use the macro so I need to save the file into xlsx instead of xlsm. The alternative option it is to remove the macro manually but it will take too much time.
When I use the macro ?
To save a copy free of macro.
