Failing Macro

[J.A.R. Karremans]

Hi everybody,

I have a macro, called "Correspondentie" that works perfectly with Microsoft
Word 2000, no problem!
I can even call winword.exe with paramters and the macro just starts.

We are now migrating to Office 2003 (including word 2003). No Problem! The
macro still runs perfectly...
The only (and that's the "bitch") thing is, the macro won't autostart
anymore with the exact same command-line as with Word 2000... What has
happened? I even disabled all macro security, but, no result...

Somebody, please HELP!!

What's the command line you're using? (I assume you created a new shortcut
for starting Word, since the ones that Office 2003 installs are those
strange ones that can't be made useful.)

Hi there Herb,

Thank you very much for your reply.

The command-line that I use, the one that works perfectly with MS Word 2000
is:

c:winword correspondentie2000.dot /tar_doc=c:\test.doc /ar_reva=1
/ar_insc=28570 /ar_beha=41278

Where c: is put to c:\program files\microsoft office\office11 and the prompt
is on a drive where correspondentie2000.dot resides.

Again, with 2000 this works, no problem! With 2003, it just starts Word and
opens (another) instance of correspondentie2000.dot and does NUTIN'!

Regards,
Jan
