I have the unhappy experience of inheriting a badly written set of
macros, one of which was embedded in several hundred word documents in
the ThisDocument module.

The Macro is Document_Open... is there a way to have a vb script rip
through all the documents and strip or empty that macro without losing
things like comments and editing histories?

If not I guess I'm stuck saving everything out as an RTF and back to a
Doc file to make this work.

G'day "mstewart14" <mstewart@interlog.com>,

There is a batch file program on the word.mvps.org site. This could be
used as the start to a macro that then looks at the
vbproject.vbcomponents and rips out the appropriate lines.
