Is there a way I can open the file in some sort of readonly or text version to see the rules?
This sounds like something I see at work if I download an xlsm file. To get round it, I right click on the file and go to 'properties'. In the 'attributes' section on the general tab, there's a 'security' section and a tick box on the right that's labelled something like 'unblock'. I tick the box and click 'ok'. Then I can run the macros.
To view the macros in the file after this, open the file, go to 'view' and 'macros'.

Although you need to enable Developer menu first in recent versions of Excel. As @Chalfie implies

This plus quickly hitting alt+f11 seems to have worked.
- right click
- properties
- general tab
- security: Unblock
- apply
- right click
I have a set of xlsm files that I want to see the rules for so I don't have to manually gather them from the people who originated the file - assuming that person(s) exists.
Changing the macro settings in the trust center does nothing.
