Can't find macro that Word warns about when file openned.

[Guest]

When I open a certain Word 2003 document I get the Security Warning window
"this file contains macros..." but when I look for the macro to delete it
there aren't any listed. Can you hide macros or might this be a virus?

Have you tried opening up VBA?

tools --> macro --> Visual Basic Editor

Yes I opened VBA. There are no macros listed to be run or edited.

Are there any Module? If there are still Modules present, Word will
think that the document still contains Marcos even if there us no
code.

To remove the Modules, right click on each one and then select "Remove
Module1" where Module1 refers to the name of the Module.

Hope this helps,

I've tried all of your suggestions and still get the message at opening of
the doc... any other suggestions?
thanks,

The only other suggestion that I can think of is to copy the text of
the document into a new one.

Edit --> Select all

sorry I couldn't be more help.
