hi,

I have a document template which contains ACtiveX Controls and the code
behind them. My problem is that, whe I created a document based on this
template, then sent it (by email) to someone else, then the code was missing,
so the controls do not function. I researched this a little, and discovered
that, unlike Excel, when Word creates a document based on a template it
creates a link between the document and the template, rather than copying
everything from the template into the new document. This strikes me a rather
short-sighted, as it means that if you want to send the document to another
person, then you have to send the template as well. Is there a way to create
the document, including the code behind it, so avoiding the need to send the
template as well.
