MACROBUTTON field suddenly stopped working
Hello All,
I am puzzled out of my mind.I have a couple of MACROBUTTON fields that I use to to insert blocks of AutoText. These MACROBUTTONs were working just fine a little bit ago but, suddenly, they stopped working. The macros work, when I run them from the Tools|Macro|Macros menu option, from the custom menu options I created for them, and when I run them from the VBA editor. What does *not* work is when I call them from a MACROBUTTON field! Even though they worked recently. I tried creating new MACROBUTTON fields, on the off-chance something changed in the ones I originally had, but new ones don't work either. It is very frustrating. I am working with Word 2003 on a Windows XP SP2 system. Does anyone have any ideas as to what might be causing this trouble? Thanks, ~Jeff |

MACROBUTTON field suddenly stopped working
Thanks Bob, but it wasn't a Macro Security issue. My macros were running
correctly when run from everywhere but the MACROBUTTON fields. In a fit of frustrated desperation, I quit Word and restarted. That seemed to clear the problem up, though I don't know what was wrong to begin with. Even though it "resolved itself," I still wish I knew what had happened to make the fields inoperative. Oh well. Thanks for your help, though. -jeff "CyberTaz" wrote: One thought that comes to mind first off - What level is your Macro Security set to?
