Message Box on document from template

[Code Numpty]

I want to display a message box with instructions when a new file is opened
based on a template. I also want to have a check box for 'Do not display this
message again'.

Is this possible in Word?

This could be done with a userform. To get started, see the article "How to
create a Userform" at:

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

To implement the checkbox requirement, you will need to use the
System.PrivateProfileString command to store the status in a file and use
that command in the autonew macro in the template to determine the stored
value and hence whether or not to display the form.
