Then look in the VBA Help for the list of available events, there are quite
a few different ones for different purposes, and you will need to trap them
all. Also take a look at this article on how to write application event
procedures


"How to create global event procedures similar to AutoOpen, AutoNew and
AutoClose, without using Normal.dot"
http://www.word.mvps.org/FAQs/MacrosVBA/PseudoAutoMacros.htm


Writing application event procedures

However, given the all-encompassing nature of what you appear to want, I
suspect that you are letting yourself in for a lot of work, and in the end
you may not achieve it all anyway.

So, let me ask a more fundamental question. What are you trying to achieve?
What is the nature of the application you are wanting to write? It may be
that a different approach altogether might bear fruit.

Forget it. Word is not a secure application and you cannot control how or
whether VBA code will run on machines whose administration you are not
responsible for. Even where you have administrative control, any
sufficiently determined user would have little difficulty breaking the
security you are trying to achieve.
