The answer to this prompt will determine if the Application will function as designed.

Select "Allow any Macro (only for trusted documents)", check "Always use this option for documents from this QlikView Server" and click OK.

How to Reset Open in Server Macro Permissions

Open Regedit

• Windows XP
  • Login to the machine with an account that has administrator permissions and start Regedit by clicking the start menu, clicking Run, entering regedit and pressing enter.

• Windows 7
  • Click the start menu and enter regedit into the search then open the regedit.exe program that is returned.

Once Regedit is open, browse for HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\QlikTech\QlikView\Settings for QlikView Servers

In the right hand window, delete the individual login that was used when the incorrect Macro Selection was made.

Exit Regedit and open QlikView again, select open in server and open the document that originally prompted for the Macro Security. Choose the recommended options and click OK.

Vital Signs Applications are not Functioning

If the Vital Signs applications are not functioning properly, the first thing to check is the permissions for Macros in the Applications. In order to verify the Macro settings, open the Application and press <Shift> + <Ctrl> + <M>

The correct setting is Give System Access to Module Script. If it is set to any of the others, we recommend that you reset the Macro Security and select the correct option when prompted. To do this please see Vital_Signs_FAQ#How_to_Reset_Open_in_Server_Macro_Permissions
