Default MACROBUTTON field suddenly stopped working

Thanks Bob, but it wasn't a Macro Security issue. My macros were running
correctly when run from everywhere but the MACROBUTTON fields.

In a fit of frustrated desperation, I quit Word and restarted. That seemed
to clear the problem up, though I don't know what was wrong to begin with.
Even though it "resolved itself," I still wish I knew what had happened to
make the fields inoperative. Oh well.

Thanks for your help, though.

One thought that comes to mind first off - What level is your Macro Security
set to? If *High* or *Very High* your macros are most likely disabled.

Hello All,

I am puzzled out of my mind.I have a couple of MACROBUTTON fields that I use
to to insert blocks of AutoText. These MACROBUTTONs were working just fine a
little bit ago but, suddenly, they stopped working.

The macros work, when I run them from the Tools|Macro|Macros menu option,
from the custom menu options I created for them, and when I run them from the
VBA editor. What does *not* work is when I call them from a MACROBUTTON
field! Even though they worked recently.

I tried creating new MACROBUTTON fields, on the off-chance something changed
in the ones I originally had, but new ones don't work either. It is very
frustrating.

I am working with Word 2003 on a Windows XP SP2 system. Does anyone have any
ideas as to what might be causing this trouble?

Thanks,
~Jeff
