Macro execution on startup

[tobya]

Discussed in #190

By default Autoexec seems to run.

Try to switch off with

WordBasic.DisableAutoMacros

[tobya]

This is in process. @chross I can call

WordBasic.DisableAutoMacros

Which disables the macros in the word document as far as I can tell from basic testing. It seems to only disable for the current application instance so as soon as the word application is closed it reverts back to the macros running. Will be available in 1.9 which hopefully I can release in a few days.

That'd be great. Currently i'm disabling all macros via group Policy which results in hanging word processes when converting macro containing documents. The reason probably is that Word tries to display a "macros are disabled" warning which is not confirmed by the "user".

[tobya]

Can I give you a test version to do some basic testing on before I release the code ? Just make sure it runs does the conversion and doesnt hang?

[tobya]

This is the test version. Try it out on some macro documents if you can.
docto.zip

version is 1.9 but I will most likely bump to 2.0 as this will be a breaking change.

Hi!
This release is great and works just as expected.
Either DOCM or DOC files with macros embedded will convert without macros being run. When using the --enable-macroautorun option, macros are executed.

Could you implement this for other filetypes as well (i.e. Excel)?

This change now included in Release 1.9 https://github.com/tobya/DocTo/releases/tag/v1.9

This is still only for Word right? Is it possible to disable macro autorun for Excel?
