MS Office Forum / Word / Programming / July 2007Macros disappear
Using word 2003 SP2, When I put in a macro, type it in or record it, I can use it as long as I don't close word, but if I close word and open it back up the macros are not there. Security setting is set to medium, macros are being stored in all documents (nomal.dot). I have never seen this before, this is a new computer, I can use macros in Excel with no problems. Any ideas on why this is happing and what to do to fix it? Thanks Paul Any chance the normal.dot is read-only?

I would have thought that if word was read only Excel would be also, but maybe not, will check it out at work tomorrow. > Any chance the normal.dot is read-only?

But, to answer your question, to discover if the normal.dot is read-only: go to the normal.dot file, right-click on the file, go to Properties, and see if the read-only property is checked. (The normal.dot file is probably located where Tools | Options | File Locations indicates templates are kept. If not there, do a search for normal.dot) st. > zSplash, > This is on my computer at work, how would I check it?

If yes, then the Acrobat 7.0 Create Adobe PDF toolbar add-in for Word prevents Word from automatically saving changes to the normal.dot template (which is where macros and toolbar customizations are stored). See http://www.adobe.com/cfusion/knowledgebase/index.cfm?id=331259 for several solutions to the problem. > Using word 2003 SP2, > [quoted text clipped - 13 lines] > > Paul garfield-n-odie , I do have Adobe install on the computer, not sure what version, thanks for the info, will check it out tomorrow.
