Detecting which document has been opened ?

[MartinGM]

When a specific document is opened in Word, I want to open a particular Ribbon Tab Group.

I know how to do the second bit - make the Ribbon visible and open the required Tab Group - but how do I detect that the specific doument has been opened ? Is there an evet I can use, and where do I put the code ?

PS I don't want to make the document itself Macro-enabled, I want the Word environment to detect that it has been opened, if you see what I mean ?

You can create a macro to run when every document is opened (see How to automatically execute a Word macro when you create, open, or close a document | TechRepublic

If you want the macro to only change the ribbon if one particular docx file is opened then you have two choices on how you might implement it:
1. Put the macro into a dotm template and attach that template to the docx
2. Code the macro to check the filename/path and only do anything if it matches your condition.

Thank you - I will work on that 😀
