Hi Macropod



I tried the document on a different PC using word 2013 and the same subscription model. On this occasion the macro worked as you have reported so it appears there is something different on my PC or at least my implementation of MS word. I'm just wandering if this might be because the document originated on the pc of a japanese colleague (who was writing in english in Japan).

I also tried renaming normal.dot before loading any word documents but that didn't make things any different. At least I know I can run on an alternative PC. Otherwise this appears to be one of life's great mysteries or a setting/option buried in the bowels on word.

If you have any final suggestions I'd be glad to hear otherwise I'm not sure how or if it's worth progressing from here.
