hello there,

i am after getting a macro to run when i open a template or open a document
from the template. I am using word 2003 and have tried

Autoopen(), Auto_open(), Document_open() and Document_New() all of which seem
to have no effect.

i even tried putting these into normal with the same outcome.

any help would be greatly appreciated.

Try naming a macro: Sub AutoNew()

This will run when a new document is created from a template usin the File/New
command or double-clicking the template name in the Windows Explorer.
