Word 2003

[GwenP]

I have automated a print maco using code:

ActiveDocument.print

This always worked in Word XP but now I have migrated the code (well
re-written actually but code is the same) in Word 2003 - when we print - any
borders in the document around text do not print. The print drawing objects
tick is on in print options - any ideas please?

Thanks
GwenP

Page borders, paragraph borders, cell borders or textbox borders?

Can you post the code you are using?

Paragraph borders - I literally just used the border tool bar.

However I have now found the nice new line tool for my new templates which
prints much nicer than a border, but still old converted documents don't
print the lines.

That is the code I have used ActiveDocument.print

Is there any compatibility things that need to be on I wonder?

Thanks

Not that I know of.
So, the code you are using is:

Sub MyMacro()
ActiveDocument.PrintOut
End Sub

???
