When trying to open a project in the Word VBA screen I get an error that says:
Title:Project Locked
Message: Project Unviewable.

How do I open it?

The template was loaded at startup and I can run the macros, but I can not
edit them.

Thanks.

In the VBA editor, click on (attempt to open) the project in question, then
provide the password you used when you protected it.

Signature

Working without a .NET?

Thanks Karl,
It was never password protected.

Use File > Open. Loading is not the same as opening: if it is merely loaded,
as you observe, you can run the macros but not look at them.

I have opened it in Word, just like in WordXP.
Still no joy.

I have exported all the forms, modules, classes and will try to import them
into a new file.

Thanks, your question lead me to the real problem.

When I click on the template in Explorer it opens a ne Word document based
on the template and not the template itself... Thus VBA will not open the
project....

My Real Problem is:
Word Open file dialog will not let me view hidden folders, ie.
User,AppData,Roaming,Microsoft,Word,Startup where the startup templates are
stored.

How do I get the Word Open File Dialog to show all the directories?
I can view them in Explorer?
