Auto open macro

[Jim]

I would like to have a macro run when I open a Word
document. In Excel you just need to name the macro
Autpen. What do I need to do in Word?

Any help would be appreciated.
Jim

To run when you open a document, AutoOpen. To run when you create a new
document based on a template, AutoNew. The macro should be in the document
or in its attached template.

Hi Jim,
You can use "Sub AutoOpen()" in a Module or you can add code to the
ThisDocument Object in "Private Sub Document_Open()"
