MS Office Forum / Word / Programming / June 2005Is a Class Module the answer?
I have atemplate with New Document and Open Document events. I intend distributing the template to allow users to create documents from it (works fine). I also want the created documents to run the DocOpen event when they are re-opened, but that doesn't work even if the template is installed. It only runs when the template file is opened. I have been trying a WithEvents class module, but that doesn't seem to run from the child documents either. I have the class module in the template project. Is this the right place? Can I even use this approach? AndyE In the VB Editor, double-click This Document in your template. Add the following code: Private Sub Document_New() 'your code here End Sub Private Sub Document_Open() 'your code here End Sub Whenever a document that was created from your template is opened, any code put under Document_Open will run.

The Document_Open coe doesn't run in documents that were created under the template.  SignatureAndyE > In the VB Editor, double-click This Document in your template.

Where should that be stored? In the template? SignatureAndyE > If you want to use the WithEvents approach, you need to -- > [quoted text clipped - 17 lines] > > > > AndyE |
