Start Word with autoexecute macro fails in Word 2003

[Guest]

Hi everybody,

I have a macro, called "Correspondentie" that works perfectly with Microsoft
Word 2000, no problem!
I can even call winword.exe with paramters and the macro just starts.

We are now migrating to Office 2003 (including word 2003). No Problem! The
macro still runs perfectly...
The only (and that's the "bitch") thing is, the macro won't autostart
anymore with the exact same command-line as with Word 2000... What has
happened? I even disabled all macro security, but, no result...

Somebody, please HELP!!

Given that you aren't reproducing the code or the command line you are
trying to use, how do you expect us to guess what the problem might be?

Hi there Graham,

I was perhaps hoping this would be a general issue with Word 2003 vs. Word
2000. As per your gentile request I will quote the command-line so that you
would be so kind as to assist:

c:winword correspondentie2000.dot /tar_doc=c:\test.doc /ar_reva=1
/ar_insc=28570 /ar_beha=41278

the default directory on c: = c:\program files\microsoft office\office11
this command is started from the directory where Correspondentie2000.dot
resides.

In Word 2000 this command-line works fine. In Word 2003, nothing happens
(automatically). When the macro is started from within Word (after a manual
start) it works fine in both cases, as wel...

Regards,
Jan

As this is being discussed in another (vba general) forum, let's leave it in
that one rather than duplicate effort.
