Hi again...

I'm trying to add a hyperlink to a form that works on a single click
when the form is locked. I found info here at
http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/TblsFldsFms/HLinksInFormsContent.htm which
has helped me set this up on my computer, including the
'single-click' macro. When i transfer to another computer i can't get
the 'single-click' macro to work.
Any suggestions?
Click to expand...

Where is the macro stored on your computer?

What did you actually transfer to the other computer?

What is the security level and Word version on the other computer?

The macro is stored in the Normal template, i only transferred the actual
Word document i was working with. Both computers have Office 2003 medium
security level for macros.
I think the issue is that i am storing the macro in the normal template, not
the actual document but if it doesn't work if i do...

Thanks

Exactly.

Create a new *.dot template. Store the macros in that template.
Install that template in Word's Start-up folder (See Tools > Options > File
Locations from the path to the Start-up folder or to change it).

Any template in this folder is what we call a "Global" template. IOW, its
content, AutoText, Macros, Toolbars, become available to all active
documents.
This is the procedure you should follow when you plan on distributing macros
to other people, it is always advisable to leave other people Normal.dot
alone.
