Save a dot as doc and it opens with the userform from the dot!

[Fred Geurtsen]

Hi,

When I save my word97.dot file as a .doc and I open the doc file, it starts
with
the userform from the dot???
This is not what I want...Is there something that I have to put in my code
to prevent that?

Thx

The name of the macro that opens the UserForm should be named "AutoNew".
That way the macro is only run when a new document is created based on the
template.

For example, if you have a UserForm called "UserForm1" that you want to open
when you create a new document based on a template, the code in your .dot
would be:

Sub AutoNew()
Load UserForm1
UserForm1.Show
End Sub

If the macro is named "AutoOpen" it will always run when a Word file is
opened
