[nfbcs] Macros in MS Word on Windows Vista

[Rasmussen, Lloyd]

I am guessing.  Perhaps an antivirus program (different one at home compared to office) is interfering with macro invocation.  Or a problem with user permissions for the area in which the macros are to be written.

Yes, I did stop recording the macro. I did everything the same as I did it on my XP machine. Also, I know that this works because it was fine on the Windows 7 machine running MSWord 2007 that I have at work. Furthermore, I did not actually do anything in the macro. The particular macros that I create are made by starting and then immediately stopping the recording and then pasting in code into the macro editor as there is not a way to create them by doing an action.

hi,

did you know to return to the tools menu, macros, and hit stop recording?
you may have been concentrating on creating what you wanted without making a mistake and forgot to end capturing the macro.
