Activate macros with Word 2002

[constance]

Hi everybody,
I wrote macros using word 2000 and I want them to work with word 2002
I made a template with my .frm and .bas files and I put it in th
Startup folder of word 2002 but it says that my macros are no
activated.
Thanks for your help

Hi Lynn,

If you select Templates and Add-Ins from the Tools menu, does your template
appear in the list with a check in the box?

Please post any further questions or followup to the newsgroups for the
benefit of others who may be interested. Unsolicited questions forwarded
directly to me will only be answered on a paid consulting basis.

Hope this helps

Hi Constance,

You get a message when starting up Word to this effect? And is your
Tools/Macro/Security setting "High"?

Is this the STARTUP folder for Word, or for Office? Is it the folder
designated as the Startup folder in Tools/Options/File locations?

In Tools/Macro/Security/Trusted Publishers, is the setting "Test all
installed addins and templates" activated? If not, activate it and see
if that helps.
