Default Form Field Macros

Created a required field macro in a word document but some other users have
them working and some do not. What setting do I need to check if everyone is
on the same version of word and windows.

Default Form Field Macros

If some users have their Macro Security Level set to High, the macros will
be disabled without them being given a message to that effect. If they have
it set to Medium, they will be asked if they want to allow the macros to
run.

Default Form Field Macros

I have checked the security levels on the various pcs and they are all the
same. We are all set at medium. This is where my confusion comes in. It
there a background setting in Windows that I need to reset? We have all
Windowns XP and MicroSoft Word 2003. Thanks for your assistance.
