MS Office Forum / Word / Programming / January 2006Why isn't template with macros located in startup folder not loaded?
Hello, I've written a template containing macros. Now, a user of this template complained to me that it won't load automatically even if located in the startup path. It can be loaded during a Word session via "Tools->Templates and Addins", though. Unfortunately I don't know which word version my user is using but she wrote that changing the macro security settings had no effect. So what else can cause this? Christian  SignatureChristian Zietz - CHZ-Soft - czietz (at) gmx.net WWW: http://www.chzsoft.com.ar/ PGP-Key-ID: 0x6DA025CA Macro security settings should have no effect on whether or not a template in the startup directory loads (just whether or not macros in it run). Is this a real Word template with a .dot suffix? And, just to be certain, Word isn't being started with any switches - or keys pressed while it starts, is it? -- Enjoy, Tony > Hello, > [quoted text clipped - 11 lines] > WWW: http://www.chzsoft.com.ar/ > PGP-Key-ID: 0x6DA025CA Tony Jollans schrieb: > Is this a real Word template with a .dot suffix? Yes it is. And it works for me and a whole lot of other people when put into the startup folder. But she says she has to enable it every time via the templates and addins dialog. > Word isn't being started with any switches - or keys pressed while it > starts, is it? I don't think so, but I'll ask her. Thanks for your reply, Christian SignatureChristian Zietz - CHZ-Soft - czietz (at) gmx.net WWW: http://www.chzsoft.com.ar/ PGP-Key-ID: 0x6DA025CA An add-in (a template saved in the Word Startup folder) may not be properly loaded if: 1. Word is set to be the Editor in Outlook and Outlook is started before Word 2. Word is started by double clicking on a Document. Word must be started from the Start Menu/Command Line to be sure that add-ins will function. SignatureHope this helps. Please reply to the newsgroup unless you wish to avail yourself of my services on a paid consulting basis.
