Mouse Move Causes Automation Error
I want to use mouse move to close a second form (hide or unload)
It works fine until I make it a .dot in the startup folder, then I get an
Automation error.

I've tried several things, including using 'on error resume', but can not get
it to work as a .dot in Start Up.

Any suggestions would be appreciated.
TIA

The code I have is:

Private Sub UserForm_MouseMove(ByVal Button As Integer, ByVal Shift As Integer,
ByVal X As Single, ByVal Y As Single)
Unload Me
End Sub

It works fine when I test the program, opened as randy.dot,
I then re-start Word with rand.dot in the word startup folder.

Then the code causes an automation error when the mouse move occurs. This is a
secondary form. It appears that the error is with the first form, and that the
secondary form is closed.

This is my attempt to display a message that is easily removed, like with the
mouse move over the secondary form.

Any ideas or suggestions to try?
