Cannot delete macro LookupMW

I am using MS Word 2000.
Recent, I found every document has a Macro called LookupMW, but it cannot be
opened or edit or delete.
The information about the macro:
Macro created 03/05/99 by Mike Weix

I used MS Word 2003 to open the same word file, the Micro cannot be seen,
but when open macro editor, the LookupMW can be seen as an empty VB
subrotine. I deleted the LookupMW, but when open in MS Word 2000, the micro
still there.

If open the Macro editor, I can find in
TemplateProject (lookup_9)

What the micro do? Why I cannot delete it?

Anyone can help?

Thanks!

It is probably installed as an Addin in the Word Startup directory. You can
determine the location of that directory under ToolsOptionsFile Locations.

Have you tried deleting the macro from the normal.dot?

Thanks for reply.
I didnot find it in the Word Startup directory:
Programfiles\microsoft office\office\addins
I also checked all users \Templates
But I did not find anything related to LookupMW
Google search "LookupMW" did not return any information.
Strange thing is it is cannot be removed.

Min

Try renaming the normal.dot template to oldnormal.dot and then re-start Word
and create a new document and see if that document contains the macro.

Thanks for your reply.
I tried, but the macro still cannot be removed.
I even uninstalled and then reinstalled MS Office.
But when I open a new document, there are two macro:
NewMacros.LookupMW and NewMacros1.LookupMW
The former is editable, removable, but the later is not.
I removed the NewMacros.LookupMW and then using Creat macro to open the VBA
editor, the following is shown:

Sub LookupMW()
'
' NewMacros1.LookupMW Macro
' Macro created 03/05/99 by Mike Weix
'

End Sub

In the VBA editor window, left-up window, I tried to remove these two macro.
It seemed they are removed from the vba editor, but when I re-open a new
word, the macro still there, but this time the name changed to LookupMW. By
export the macro and then open it using notepade, the following is shown:

Attribute VB_Name = "NewMacros"
Sub LookupMW()
Attribute LookupMW.VB_Description = "Macro created 03/05/99 by Mike Weix"
Attribute LookupMW.VB_ProcData.VB_Invoke_Func = "Normal.NewMacros.LookupMW"
'
' LookupMW Macro
' Macro created 03/05/99 by Mike Weix
'

End Sub

What it is? why cannot remove it?

LookupMW suggests a Merriam-Webster dictionary add-in. This could be an
add-in in Word or Office's Startup folder or a COM add-in. In any case, the
way to get rid of the macro would be to uninstall the add-in. See
