Problems with Apple's sandbox requirements in Mac Office 2016 and higher with VBA code

• I just updated Excel and now when the script runs it's asking me to grant access, but all the files are grayed out. Note that I am able to open the data file directly in Excel using FileOpen without having to grant any permissions (it's a.xlsx file). It resides in the same Dropbox folder where the.xlsm file containing the script resides.
• On your Mac, select the item, then choose File Get Info. If the lock at the bottom right is locked, click it to unlock the Get Info options, then enter an administrator name and password. If the new owner's name isn't listed in the Name column in the Sharing & Permissions section, click the Add button to add the new owner.

Tutorial: Query Microsoft Access Tables using Excel for Mac Part 4 - Get Your Data - Excel 2016 Tip: Use Excel 2011 instead, if you have it By Jim Gordon, co-author of Office 2011 for Mac All-in-One For Dummies. Now that you have set up your data sources you can use them in Excel.

In Windows Excel 97-and higher and in Mac Excel 2011 you can open files or save files where you want in almost every folder on your system without warnings or requests for permission. But in Mac Office 2016 and higher Microsoft have to deal with Apple's sandbox requirements. When you use VBA in Mac Excel 2016 or higher that Save or Open files you will notice that it is possible that it will ask you permission to access the file or folder (Grant File Access Prompt), this is because of Apple's sandbox requirements.This means that when you want to save/open files or check if it exists with VBA code the first time you will be prompted to allow access on the first attempt to access such a folder or file.

How to avoid problems

There are a few places on your Mac that you can use to avoid the prompts and let your code do what it needs to do without user interaction. But these folders are not in a place that a user can easily find so below are some steps that I hope to make it easier for you to access the folder manual if you want.

This is the Root folder on my machine that we use in the examples on this page:
/Users/rondebruin/Library/Group Containers/UBF8T346G9.Office
Note: rondebruin is the user name in this path and I agree that the naming of the folder for Office(UBF8T346G9.Office) is not so nice, but Microsoft must use that of Apple.

Manual create a folder for your Excel files in the Office folder

1. Open a Finder Window
2. Hold the Alt key when you press on Go in the Finder menu bar
3. Click on Library
4. Open the Group Containers folder
5. Open the UBF8T346G9.Office folder
6. Create a Folder inside this folder named MyExcelFolder for example
7. Select this folder

This are three ways to easily open the folder manual :

• Add it to your Favorites in Finder by dragging it to it.
• Add it to your Favorites in Finder with the shortcut : cmd Ctrl T
• Drag the folder to the Desktop with the CMD and Alt key down. You now have a link(alias) to the folder on your desktop so it is easy to find it and open it in the future.

Note : Adding the folder to your Favorites is my favorite because you see the folder in your open and save dialogs in Excel.
