Default Strange macro behavior in 2016

A family member is using Word 2016 in Windows 10. I recorded a simple macro for her to insert a date field, a soft return, then a time field, then changing the field to plain text, right-aligning the paragraph, decreasing the point size, and starting a new blank paragraph at left. Works flawlessly in my Word 2010 in W7. In hers, it inserts the dateline, sends it to the right, and then selects that and anything below it. End. The field is still a field (content control, it appears -- could that be the problem?), and the time line never appears.



I have looked through Options for any setting that might be affecting this but can't figure it out. Is there some compatibility problem that won't allow me to successfully record this macro for 2016? I recorded it on my machine, simply because I found it easier that the wretched touchpad on her laptop and related laptop interface problems.

Thanks.
