MacroButton not working
I have a template which has a macrobutton field in it. When users create a
new document based on the template they then have the choice to run a macro within the document to add further information. When I double click on the macrobutton, it works perfectly for me, however, on another user's computer double clicking the macrobutton does nothing. I have checked that the other user has the same templates attached and the macro is in a global template. If I go to Macros and run the macro it works perfectly on the other user's computer. Is there a setting in Word 2000 which would enable/disable macrobutton fields? thanks, |

MacroButton not working
Hi ?B?SnVsZXM=?=,
I have a template which has a macrobutton field in it. When users create a new document based on the template they then have the choice to run a macro within the document to add further information. When I double click on the macrobutton, it works perfectly for me, however, on another user's computer double clicking the macrobutton does nothing. I have checked that the other user has the same templates attached and the macro is in a global template. If I go to Macros and run the macro it works perfectly on the other user's computer. Is there a setting in Word 2000 which would enable/disable macrobutton fields? Is this on just one other machine? Or are you seeing it on multiple machines? My first thought is that the user may have a macro with the same name somewhere, so the Macrobutton field is "confused".

MacroButton not working
Thanks for your response. I worked out that I created the macro in one
template and then imported it to another template. I had to create the macro in the second template instead of importing it. This now works. I will know for next time, thanks.
