user forms in templates

[Guest]

Hello. I have created a User Form which is supposed to run when the user
opens the document.

It worked perfectly when the document was in *.doc format, the user could
open the document any way and the User Form would open.

I saved the document as a *.dot and now if you goto New > Templates >
Minute, it opens the template up as a new document (which it is supposed to
do), but no User From is displayed.

If you were to open the Template as if you were going to edit it, all work
properly.

Does anyone know a solution to this?

Thank you in anticipation.

Matt

You might want to try posting in the microsoft.public.word.vba.userforms NG
instead of here. This is an end user NG.

Yes...move your UserForm.Show call from the ThisDocument_Open even to
the ThisDocument_New event.
