How to disable a WordBasic macro in VB?

[Chris H]

Hello All,

My company still have wordbasic macros associated to a few documents but if I disassociate them from the document, the document STILL uses the macro. Is it possible for wordbasic macros(or any macro) to be embedded into the document( not in the normal.dot template and not in the template portion of the document)?

I would like to be able to disable the macro from running if possible or somehow disassociate the macro do some work and re-associate the macro. Is this possible?

I thought all macros had to be initiated with code if you run in Visual basic. The normal.dot does not have this macro because I removed it from it's spot and let word re-create it. I even disassociated my computer from the network where the macro lives and the document found a way to call the macro.

Thanks in advance for any help,
Regards,
Chris H

Nope, we don't use custom addins and that folder is empty.

Normally when I hit a macro dialog, I am able to step through the code if it is VBA and unprotected but I couldn't.... I have never seen a macro like this before... quite stealthy.

I can't seem to find out much about these macros on the net... I don't think Word XP has a problem with these macros just Word 2000 and below.

Here is an example of the old macro..

Thanks,
Chris

Macros can be saved in documents, but only in Word 97 and above, so it's
hard to see how a WordBasic macro could be saved with the document. Do you
see the macro in Tools | Macro | Macros? If so, change the "Macros in"
setting till you find out where it is.

Hi Chris,

If you are unable to view the macro then how do you know the phrases
you cited are found in the macro?

I suspect the document contains fill-in fields and they are prompting
when the document opens.

If the macro you are referring to is a series of input boxes then a
macro is not in use. In the past one had to create an AutoNew or
AutoOpen macro that updated the fill-in fields which caused them to
display. As of Word 97 (I think) this is no longer required and they
will prompt automatically.

Press Alt + F9 to toggle the field of field codes and remove any
FILLIN fields you find.

Please post all follow-up questions to the newsgroup. Requests for

This is my whole problem.. No templates are associated to this
document anymore, my normal.dot template is blank and this wordbasic
macro is still associated to the doc.

Like I mentioned previously, I disconnected my computer from the
network and somehow the macro tried to execute.

"so it's hard to see how a WordBasic macro could be saved with the
document"

I don't mean saved with the document like a simple association, I mean
it is somehow hidden... I believe I can remove the macro if I save the
document as a text file since copying and pasting to a new document
didn't seem to help.

For example, If I open the .doc document using a text editor, I can
still find remains of the macro... ex
W o r k s h e e t
W o r k s h e e t 1  V i s a T y p e
I s s u e d B y B K
W o r k s h e e t 2  W o r k s h e e t S e l e c t  B u d g e t

These phrases are *only* found in the macro code not as text on the
document... This tells me the macros code is embedded inside the
document...

Tools | Macro | Macros don't have anything...

This phantom macro problem is driving me nuts... There must be a way
to turn it off even if I can't remove it. Since it is not a better
macro, I don't think Word 2000+ can detect it with the regular
security settings... Although I have my macro security settings set to
high, I never get a prompt when I open this doc.

Thanks..
Chris H

The code he quoted doesn't sound like FILLIN fields to me. It sounds like
the WordBasic precursor of a UserForm. Chris, have you tried opening the
NewMacros module (or any other that might be affecting the document) in the
VBA Editor to see what you can find there? You might also want to move this
discussion to one of the Word VBA NGs where the developers hang out. Someone
there might be willing to take a look at your problem document.

[Chris H]

Alt+F9 worked to show me the problem.... I confused it with the macro it used to be associated too. Some of the macro code also have the same phrases.

Now I an simply record all the enabled form fields in a collection, disable them do some work then re-enable them...

Thank you soo much for your help.
