design mode
Hi Sherry,
I'm not familiar with the term "merge print form". Is this a form with form fields, or a mail merge main document? Does or has this file ever contained macros? Elements from the Controls Toolbox? What is your Macro security setting (Tools/Macros/Security)? word 2000. why does my merge print form all of a sudden open in design mode. this keeps the form from working properly when being accessed by a calling application.(the form worked fine until last tuesday) Cindy Meister INTER-Solutions, Switzerland http://homepage.swissonline.ch/cindymeister (last update Sep 30 2003) http://www.word.mvps.org This reply is posted in the Newsgroup; please post any follow question or reply in the newsgroup and not by e-mail :-) |

design mode
it is a mail merge main document.
security is low. after trying to figure it out, i think the problem is - the document is using CIC signit for word,this application has a template with it, but i can not open the template without a password. so i'm not real sure this is the problem.i closed the controls toolbox and reset then saved my document but next time i open it design mode is opened. can i maybe create an on open macro to close the design mode, if so how? -----Original Message----- Hi Sherry, I'm not familiar with the term "merge print form".

Hi Sherry,
I think you'll need to contact the people who provided the template. Since macro security shouldn't be triggering, it sounds like either 1. The internal structure has been damaged 2. The programmers left some code windows open in the VB IDE (the place where one writes the code) In either case, one would have to be able to open the template, which means only someone with the password can help. it is a mail merge main document. security is low. after trying to figure it out, i think the problem is - the document is using CIC signit for word,this application has a template with it, but i can not open the template without a password. so i'm not real sure this is the problem.i closed the controls toolbox and reset then saved my document but next time i open it design mode is opened. can i maybe create an on open macro to close the design mode, if so how?
