Macros and Templates

[Stacia Libby]

I have created a template and a macro that asks
two "fillin" questions. I cannot get this macro to run
when I open the template, as the "user". I have tried to
create a toolbar with the macro, however when I open the
template as the "user" the menu is not there. I cannot
figure out what I am doing wrong. please help.

Hi Stacia,

To get a macro to run when you create a new file from a template, name it
AutoNew.

I would use a userform, rather than fillin fields.

See the article "How to create a Userform" at:

http://www.mvps.org/word/FAQs/Userforms/CreateAUserForm.htm

Please post any further questions or followup to the newsgroups for the
benefit of others who may be interested. Unsolicited questions forwarded
directly to me will only be answered on a paid consulting basis.

Hope this helps
