This file originated from an internet location - How to mark this file as local and safe?

Question

I opened a dotx that was emailed to me and I get the prompt saying the file originates from internet location. That is fine. But I now made changes and Save As a new dotx but when I open it, it still warns me that it is unsafe. That is not good. How can I mark the document as local and safe? I am going to use VBA to edit the file and the warning is interfering by making it readonly.

One way you can try is going to the Trust Center setting. Go to File -> Options -> Trust Center. In the settings, look at Trusted Documents, then you can choose "allow documents on a network to be trusted".
