Ths isn't a VBA question !

I put an "on open" macro into my document - that works just fine.
Except that as it is now a macro-enabled Word file OneDrive refuses to let it be Autosaved (despite the constant nag to Autosave my documents).



Aaaargh

Is there any way around this arbitrary maze of permissions ?

I just would lke Autosave and a macro working in the same document.

Most macros should be stored in templates, not documents.
I have no trouble with macro-enabled templates stored on OneDrive, so long as I use their synced counterparts from my hard drive.
I avoid AutoSave. It does not work reliably and only works for documents/templates saved or synced to OneDrive/SharePoint.

Thanks Charles
So a question if I may - how could I get an on_open macro to function in a specific document by using a macro-enabled template ? I don't understand how to do that.

Nor do I. AFAICT it is impossible.

Sorry I can't suggest a solution.

Store the AutoOpen macro in the template on which the document is based. Use that template for documents where you want this behavior.
