Default Docm content dissapearing when I open the file?

Hi all,

Ive got a strange problem. When I open my docm file which is a form in which I completed I can see the completed text for about a second then it all dissapears as if the form is blank.

Any ideas why this is happening?

Thanks in advance -

Do you know what kind of form fields these are?

Legacy?

Content Control?

Active-X?

You say it is a .docm.

What are your macro security settings. Can you open it without running macros?

It was an active-x control, but to get around the problem I exported my Word settings in the registry and then deleted them. All fixed now thanks
