Word 2000 prompts to save... no changes made
User is running OS 2k and Office 2k. Each time she opens a Word doc, does
nothing to it, she still gets the question if she wants to save changes to the document. She said this happens everytime she is in Word whether she makes changes or not. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated! Thanks! |

Word 2000 prompts to save... no changes made
Is this happening with literally *every* document - including new blank
docs - or just certain ones (even "most")? In all probability the existing docs contain some sort of fields that are updating either on Open or Close which are triggering the prompts. If this isn't the problem or it needs further attention please post back in more detail. -- Regards |:) Bob Jones [MVP] Office:Mac "Roxy" wrote in message ... User is running OS 2k and Office 2k.

Yes it happens to all documents incuding new blank docs. It asks the usesr
"do you want to save the changes you made to file name" Even if she has a blank page open and only wants to close Word it says "do you want to save the changes you made to Document1" "CyberTaz" wrote: Is this happening with literally *every* document - including new blank docs - or just certain ones (even "most")?

Open the document template (most likely Normal.dot). Go to ToolsOptionsSave and uncheck "embed smart tags." Save the template and the see if you still get the message on new documents. For the existing docs, you will have to open and change this setting manually or use a macro to do it on a complete folder of files. |

But does Word 2000 have smart tags?
