Message in MS Word

[Nock Tech]

I have revised a word doc file & wish the user to notify by message
but only when opened first time. Any subsequent opening of file should
not display the message. How to do this?

Create a macro called AutoOpen. In that macro check if a DocVariable called
(eg) ShowMessage exists. If not, Show the message and create the variable.

One possible way is to create a "Document variable" and assign it a specific
value when you revised the doc. Then in the document's Open event check if
this variable is set and equal to your predefined value then show the
message box and destroy the variable or assign it a different value.
