Error when I open a .DOT file

[Enric]

Dear folks,

I've got a .DOT document which whenever I open appears a dialogbox
containing the following message:

"If you open the document this statement will commit:
SELECT * FROM

WHERE ((fAX IS NOT NULL))
Data of the database will set above the document"

When I click yes, appears the template two seconds and after that, MS Word
is closed. I'm seeing the event viewer but neither warning/errors appears
there.

Does anyone knows what the hell is happening with the aforementioned
document??

Thanks in advance and best regards,

Enric

Maybe you should be using File>New rather than File>Open. If that doesn't
overcome the problem, you should take it up with the person who created the
template to find out how it is intended to work.

A .DOT is _not_ a document, but a template. As was already suggested, if you
create a new document based on the template instead of opening it, this
might not occur. It is apparently occuring because of some vba code in the
template.

What kind of merge is this? Access?
