Default Warning if opened read-only?

Yes it is a macro.

For help installing and using the macro see:
http://www.gmayor.com/installing_macro.htm

Also see: http://word.mvps.org/faqs/macrosvba/DocumentEvents.htm

If your document is tied to a specific template you would probably want to
use Document_Open.

You might try something like this in your normal.dot template or other
globally template Addin:

Sub AutoOpen()
If ThisDocument.ReadOnly Then MsgBox "The document you just opened is read
only."
End Sub


Is that a macro? I'm guessing that it's loke an event macro that runs
whenever a document is opened, right?

Can you post simple instructions for getting it installed? (Or a
pointer to a web page?)

I'm running Word 2007.
