Re: Word macro warning

Thank you Renee and Doug. I suspected that there was something hidden which
was causing the problem. There are several images which illustrate the
instructions in the text. I saved the document as .rtf, reopened it and
resaved it as a .doc file and all's fine now.

Hi Everyone

I have XP Pro SP2 which is fully updated. I accessed a site using IE7,
copied some text and pasted it into Word 2003. I saved the document and,
when I reopened it, I was warned about it containing a macro. I did a
virus
scan which was clear.

I enabled the macro and looked at the VBA editor but saw no code there.
In
the Project pane there are "Reference to Normal" and "ThisDocument". When
I
looked in the right pane of "ThisDocument", I saw DefaultOcxName,
DefaultOcxName1, DefaultOcxName2, DefaultOcxName3 etc., to
DefaultOcxName15.

The text in the document was present initially in cells in tables so I
converted it from tables to text then resaved the text in a new document
but
exactly the same warning was displayed when I reopened it.

Any idea what's happened? I don't like the warning when I open these
document(s). I suspect that I could retype the whole document (it would
be
pointless having a copy/paste facility) and that is likely to prevent the
macro warning but I'd rather not have to do that.

Thanks for your time and patience.
