I am running word 2003 on XP machine. I have one document which does
not have any macros. When I open this doc I get the Security warning
error window which says this file contains macros. This window has
three buttons 'Disable Macros' , 'Enable Macros' and 'More
Information'. My security level is Medium.
I also checked in Tools-->Macros-->Macros window and there are no
macros. I went to see in VB editor but there are no macros. I checked
the template also and it has 'Normal.dot' as template.  I also checked
Tools-->Options--> File Locations tab, none of the locations have any
.dot file.
Why I am getting this warning even though there are no macros in the
file?
No warning message comes up if I change the security level to High.

Perhaps you've got an empty module in there. Much like removing code from
Excel, you can remove code from Word. See:
http://www.officearticles.com/excel/remove_vba_code_from_a_workbook_in_microsoft
_excel.htm

Specifically, look for a module called NewMacros and be sure to remove that
long with any other code. ThisDocument may contain some code.

Thanks for your reply. I rechecked again and there are no macros and no
code in any of VBA module but still getting annoying 'Security Warning'
messagebox.

Sorry to take so long getting back to you. I can only offer to look at the
document.

You must delete the (empty) modules. The only one that should be there (and
which you can't delete) is ThisDocument

Save the file as an .RTF file, then close it and then reopen it and save it
back as a Word Document.
