OPENING A TEMPLATE IN WORD 97

Whenever I open a template in Word 97 I get the error message " run-time
error 424 object required" I then have the option to "debug" but all I get is
another window with the words "MyShow" highlighted in yellow.

How to I stop this error message from re-appearing?

It means the template has macro code with bugs. Delete the code.

Thanks - but how do I delete the code? Sorry but I am not a computer wiz!

If you know nothing about the code, don't want it, don't care, then: press
Alt-F11 to switch to VBA. Find the template in the project window (top
left). Expand to display the modules. Right-click, delete.

I would operate on a copy of your template or keep a backup, just in case
there is something you want.
