[mso] Re: OXP Macro Errors

She probably has two macro laden templates at work here. The palmapp.dot
file is the first one to examine. I'm unfamiliar with it but it appears
to be a template that supports document transport between her PDA and
the desktop. It's also possible that you'll find other templates in that
path that are being loaded and triggering the macro security message.

Any template that is stored in the startup directory will be loaded by
Word at startup so, if you and the user aren't comfortable moving the
macro security to medium and allowing the macros to be enabled, you need
to remove the templates from this directory.
