How do I stop the "This Memo is in regards to" window from popping
When I open a particular file I get two windows which pop up...
The first reads: "This Memo is in regards to" this window has an open field to enter info, and it has two buttons; OK and Cancel. A second window reads: "Registration Number" this window also has an open field to enter info, and it has two buttons; OK and Cancel. At first I thought this was just a file using the Memo template, but when I looked at it's properties, it reads that it is made using the Normal template. No other file I have promts me with these two windows. Can I stop these windows from popping up? Thanks in advance |

How do I stop the "This Memo is in regards to" window from popping
Either:
1. The document itself has a macro running when you open it. Switch to VBA and have a look. Delete any code modules attached to the document. or (unlikely, but technically possible) 2. You have some code in normal.dot or in an add-in that runs when any document opens, checks if it's your particular file, and does things if it is. Investigate only if option 1 fails.

How do I stop the "This Memo is in regards to" window from popping
Hi ?B?QkFE?=,
While looking at the document, press Alt+F9 to toggle on the field codes. Do you see anything that starts with { FILLIN or { ASK ? Most likely, the template contains FILLIN fields. When a new document is generated from a template the FILLIN fields are automatically updated (displayed). They're there to help fillin "required" information quickly, without needing to navigate to the the "target" spots in the document. When I open a particular file I get two windows which pop up... The first reads: "This Memo is in regards to" this window has an open field to enter info, and it has two buttons; OK and Cancel. A second window reads: "Registration Number" this window also has an open field to enter info, and it has two buttons; OK and Cancel.
