Microsoft word 2007 macros??

[computernewb]

hi. I received a document that im trying to open with microsoft word 2007. However i get a notification saying that "macros" is disabled. So i enabled macros but when i try to open the file, i still get the same message.

What is going on? Also, if i open in "read only" mode, will i be missing parts of the documents such as signatures and other important parts?

thanks!
