Thanks for responding.
Regarding Macros Not Working, the KB referenced IMHO has nothing to do with it,
Microsoft deprecated the HLP files for CHM and at the same time for security reasons stopped Macro Usage UNLESS you have Trust in their newer products. I'm sure a lot of this was marketing to force older users like myself to upgrade (e.g. Office Products).


Here's the best link I found to the KB you mention for others, if needed.
Windows update causes Office VBA to fail - Office Watch


Thanks for mentioning Libre Office.

I'm NOT a heavy user of Word, just few docs here and there until now, so Libre may be an alternative sometime in the future, but I imagine an All new GUI interface.
