[mso] Re: What causes Run-time Errors?

Well...there very well could be some old code that now longer works.
Especially if you recently upgraded to a new version of Word and are using
dots from the old version. If the person who wrote the code used anything
that could have changed, it'll no longer work.

You could go to Tools/Macro/Macro and see what you have in there. But if you
don't know EXACTLY what SHOULD/SHOULD NOT be in there for the company and/or
know how to write code, it might be like my daughter looking under the hood
of her car...Yup, that's an engine alright!<g>

Yikes!!! I just realized I'm an idiot and didn't give you the most important
line! I just told you to run winword.exe and hit enter right!<sigh> (The
next teenager who interrupts me while I'm replying get grounded<g>)...you
need to add the /a switch to stop the addins. Just checked your earlier post
and realized I forgot the most important part!<sigh>

HERE is what you need to type!

In the Start/Run dialog type: winword.exe /a THEN hit enter!

The /a switch stops all addins from running. So you were only typing the
main code. You HAVE TO add that switch. Sorry...I'm in the middle of a
project and not thinking about some things clearly...I've got the 90 mile
code stare!<g>

To Dian,
       The run-time errors began a long time ago and they occur when
beginning a new document as well as when opening saved documents from the
desktop(i.e. a brochure).  I will observe for a while and be back in touch.
