Hi All,

I have a document based on Normal. I attach the document to a new custom
template via Tools, Templates and Add-Ins.

Is it possible to run a automacro, from the new attached template, after I
attached the template?

Automatically you mean, without you needing to call it? No. You should be
able to use a macro to do the attaching, then calling the macro, though.
Along these lines

Sub AttachAndRun()
Dim path As String

path = "C:\Documents and Settings\[user name]\My Documents\xyz.dot"

ActiveDocument.AttachedTemplate = path
Application.Run "'path'!Module1.AutoOpenX"
End Sub
