I have a word document that is opened on an intranet using Internet Explorer.
The Auto Open event handler does not seem to be running when the document is
opened.

The AutoOpen event handler simply calls a macro stored in a module within
the document.

If you open the doc (using internet explorer) save it to the hard drive,
then close it and reopen it from disk, it works fine.

Internet Explorer is opening the document in a separate window and the
security level is not set at high.  I suspect it could be network security
preventing auto open macros from running, but not positive.  

Does anybody have any alternate theories of the crime?

Thanks for any help offered!
