Hi Don,

There is a macro in a global template attempting to run that contains
an error. To determine if you are using any global templates go to
Tools/Templates and Add-Ins and see if there are any global templates
or add-ins listed. If so they are located in one of your Startup
folders. The location of the Word\Startup folder can be found under
Tools/Options/File Locations and the Office\Startup folder can be
found in the Office installation path..

Take a look in each folder and if you find more than one file move
them one at a time and try duplicating the error after each file is
moved out of the folder until you determine which one is causing the
problem.

For additional troubleshooting steps see this article:

Please post all follow-up questions to the newsgroup. Requests for
assistance by email can not be acknowledged.
