AutoNew Macro

Word 2002

I have a basic fill-in form in Word which I store in a Public Folder of
Outlook for people to open and send as an email.

My problem:  I have an AutoNew macro in the template so that when the
document is opened it will automatically turn on the "envelope" and turn the
document into an email.  This works fine when I open it from a standard
folder but when I open it from Public Folders in Outlook it seems to ignore
the macro.

Any help out there would be appreciated.

When you say "fill-in form" are you talking about a userform which is a
custom dialog box? Or, are you talking about an Outlook form?
Something else? I am assuming Outlook 2002 as well, if wrong, say so.

I am posting this to the outlook.program_vba newsgroup as well because I
suspect you'll get a better answer there.

Sorry Charles:

It is a 2002 Word doc using tables and a text box form fields.  I have the
AutoNew in this document to turn on the "envelope" for email.  I copy it to
an Outlook 2002 Exchange folder.  It does seem to be the Public Folder that
disables the auto macro.

I don't know enough about Outlook to be of help. I simply forwarded your
question to a group that I thought might know more.

AutoNew won't fire because you're never creating a new document if you're opening a "freedoc" from a public folder.
