Access 2007 - Why doesn't the VBA work?

[Mtlca401]

I am try to build some code in Access 2007, but can't figure it out. I am not a beginner, but I can't get just a simple code like this:

msgbox "testing"

to work when I add an event procedure. Even when I mark the line to debug it it doesn't go through the event. It does nothing. Is there something I have to set to get the visual basic part to work? I have programmed a lot in 97 and 2000, but 2007 is way different.

What is the macro security level ?

Hope This Helps, PH.

I didn't know about that feature, so I changed it to enable all and it works for now.

thanks

That's what it was, then, the security feature.

It was under Tools -> Macros ->Security, or some option of that nature, correct? It may be labeled differently in 2007.
