Running Macros Created in Office 2000 on Office XP

[Bill King]

Hello,

I have developed a macro-driven form our office uses
using VBA Word. When we migrated to Office XP, the form
template triggers an error, shuts off MS Word, then re-
initiates the form from "recovered" documents. Does
anyone know of a VBA compatability problem between 2000
and XP, and if so, how to solve it.

Hi Bill,

There's no "known compatibility problem" going from 2000 to
2002.

What's the exact error message? What does the macro do?
Have you gone through the usual steps to make sure it's
really the macro, and not a damaged document file causing
the crash?
