Run a macro automatically when opening a document - how?

[Barry]

I'm a novice with macros and want to be able to run a macro automatically
when opening a document to execute a bunch of ASK and REF fields to capture
setup info e.g. customer name, address etc, store them in bookmarks and then
paste the data into various parts of the doc.

Is a macro the best way to do this or is there a better way?

Write a macro in your document, and call it "AutoOpen". This is a reserved
name. Whenever the doc is opened, Word will run this macro if it is present.

Hope this helps,
