Using Word 2000 template in Word 2003

I am receiving the following error message when launching a customized
template created in Word 2000 in Word 2003:

There is insufficient memory. Save the document now.

I am new to VBA and was wondering what I should look for in the code that
might eliminate this error message.

Thanks.

A code example might help here. Are you running an AutoExec of some
sort?

Sorry, I'm not sure what you mean by an AutoExec. The template is stored in a
specific location on my hard drive, and when I use Word, I choose file>new
and select the template. In Office 2000, the template never had a problem
launching. Is there something I should look for in the code? I didn't create
the template and am unable to reach the individual that created it.

Regards,

LOL - yes - look for the word Auto

If you have routines called AutoExec, AutoOpen - stuff like that -
they automagically fire upon the appropriate event.

Additionally, the template may contain corruption. You can try using a
VBA Code Cleaner (google that phrase) to rebuild the project, that MAY
bring some joy. However, I normally fully recreate the template at
this point, using tools > organizer to drag over all the relevant
stuff. When you go to copy the content, do not include the last
paragraph mark from any section.

I took your advice and it does eliminate the first error message I was
getting. however, I am now receiving a new error message:

Run-time error '3800:
could not set the ListIndex Property. Invalid property value.

When I click debug, it takes me to a popup window that the author created
(It's out report details window). Within the window, there are combo boxes, a
dt picker and checkboxes. As far as an invalid property value, I'm not sure
which of these could have it. Any suggestions?

Sorry, psychic abilities on low :) Examine the dud Auto routine, it
is trying to do some necessary initialisation.
