I have created a macros to give instructions to my users when opening a
template. Is there a way to code the macro so that it only opens on the
front end when the user first opens the template I created - not their
document that they save? I don't want the instructions to carry over to
their file once they save the file under whatever name they choose.

Call the macro AutoNew, so it runs only when they first create the document.
Macros don't, in any case, 'carry over' to the document: they remain in the
template (although they can still be run when the document is open and the
template is accessible).

Sorry, I'm new to dealing with macros.

What do you mean by "Call the macro AutoNew"; should I replace
"Document_New()" with "AutoNew_New()" when I enter my code or should I be
renaming it somewhere else?

 

[Jezebel]

You should call it AutoNew() and put it in an ordinary module in the
template.

Make sure the macro is saved *in the document template* and not in
normal.dot!
