Showing the Document Map

[Ward]

Hi,

With the help of a Global Template (Main.dot), I start the creation of
a document (based on Report.dot).
After the document is finished i want the readers automatically have
the "Document Map" visible.

The document is distributed in a large organisation, and at home of the
readers (students). My problem rises when the connection to the
Report.dot is broken.

How do i add to the document:
ActiveDocument.ActiveWindow.DocumentMap = True
Or is there a better solution?

Thank you for your time.

Ward

Give it a Document_Open event that has that one line.

G'day Steve,

Thank you for your reaction,

My problem was: how to get the macro in the document in stread of the
template.
Finaly i created a module named modAutoExec.bat, and placed it on the server.

In the Main.dot i create the document and import the macro:
Set docNew = Documents.Add(Template:="Report.dot")
docNew .VBProject.VBComponents.Import FileName:= "modAutoExec.bas"

the module looks like:
Public Sub AutoOpen()
ActiveDocument.ActiveWindow.DocumentMap = True
End Sub
Public Sub AutoClose()
ActiveDocument.ActiveWindow.DocumentMap = False
End Sub

Thanks mate

An easier way is to include a separate Code Module in your main
template that you copy over into This_Document.
