Word 2004 for Mac -- Do you want to save the changes?

I posted this question in "Word General Questions" and was referred
here.

I am running Microsoft Word 2004 for Mac, v. 11.2, on OS 10.4.5.

When I open a document, copy some text, and then try to close the
document, I am asked, "Do you want to save the changes," even though I
have not made any changes.

I have seen this issue addressed for Windows versions, suggesting that
one turn off smart tags. As best I can tell, the Mac version does not
even have smart tags. I have turned off background repagination. I have
no fields in the document. I do have various macros, but I set up a
template without any macros, and documents created with that template
display the same behavior. I removed all items from my Word startup
folder.

I would appreciate any guidance.
