I have written a document in Word 2K3 and it has some VB code in it. However when someone in Word XP opens it they code does not work. Any ideas? Gerald Ray was telling us: Gerald Ray nous racontait que : > I have written a document in Word 2K3 and it has some VB code in it. > > However when someone in Word XP opens it they code does not work. > > Any ideas? No. Security settings? Other than that, without seeing the code, and since I did not pass my Crystal Ball class last semester ;-), it is hard to answer... Can you post the relevant code?  SignatureSalut! _______________________________________ Jean-Guy Marcil - Word MVP jmarcilREMOVE@CAPSsympatico.caTHISTOO Word MVP site: http://www.word.mvps.org This is a sample of the code Private Sub CheckBox2_Click() If (CheckBox2.Value = True) Then CheckBox3.Value = True Else CheckBox3.Value = False End If End Sub All I do is if you click the check box here it will mark a cooresponding checkbox later on in the document. > Gerald Ray was telling us: > Gerald Ray nous racontait que : [quoted text clipped - 12 lines] > Crystal Ball class last semester ;-), it is hard to answer... > Can you post the relevant code?

If you debug, which line fails?

In Word XP but it does in Word 2K3. > Gerald Ray was telling us: > Gerald Ray nous racontait que : [quoted text clipped - 13 lines] > > If you debug, which line fails?

I remember hearing about cases where the ActiveX control changed names when used across versions in XP. In design mode, right click on a checkbox control and choose "Code" and see what names is given to the sub you get to. Is it still CheckBox2? It is often more reliable to give a name to the control and not let Word defaults to a standard names for ActiveX controls. Or, put a Stop command at the top of the code to see if the code gets executed at all or not. Personally, I avoid them like the pest! See what Cindy Meister (Word MVP) has to say about ActiveX controls: http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/dnword2k2/html/ odc_activeX.asp SignatureSalut! _______________________________________ Jean-Guy Marcil - Word MVP jmarcilREMOVE@CAPSsympatico.caTHISTOO Word MVP site: http://www.word.mvps.org
