Trouble recording a macro in Word

Thanks for your reply! I used to do the exact same thing with no trouble. The only changes have been from Windows XP Pro to Windows Media Centre. There's gotta be an explanation....I'm too computer ignorant to write code!....AHHHHH!

Try to find another machine with Windows XP (Home or Pro) and Word 2003, and convince yourself that it works there. Then find another machine with Windows Media Center and Word 2003 and convince yourself that it doesn't work there with exactly the same document. It's important that it's the same document (mail or copy by diskette or USB-stick).

Media Centers are primarily meant for media, not for documents. But I agree it should work. So if it doesn't you've got a good reason to call Microsoft. If it's a real bug in their products, they won't charge you for the call.

Good luck,


Kees

Thank you so much for your input. I might give that a try!

Record it somewhere where it works. Then copy the crucial part of the contents to your own macro. Use any text document or mail to make the copying easier.

No need to really program, just copy (and maybe slightly modify) the code generated. If you need help with that, that might be possible here.

Hope this helps.
