Hi,

i need to create an addIn that executes every time I create a new document.
I saved an word document as a *.dot and put it in the add_in path. Then I
created a module with a sub AutoExec.
If I start word.exe the code is executed. But if I select FILE -> NEW ->
EMPTY DOCUMENT the code isn?t executed again.

Any suggestions?
