microsoft.public.word.vba.general

Thanks Jay, but I had already found this solution and somehow it's still not
working. Where exactly am I supposed to place the following line?:

WordBasic.DisableAutoMacros 1

1) Immediately after I call the Open method on my document object?
2) Before?
3) Is this WordBasic object global? because I open a Word object in my code,
then I leave it in memory while I open and close document objects. At the end
I close my Word object.

Thanks in advance.
Ray
