Macro Issue in Word 2010
We are having an issue with a word macro written in VB which was created by the previous IT manager.
There are two scripts - one to add the letterhead background and the other removes it .
These scripts seem to be part of the normal.dot file. When you run the batch file to add this to the users local profile it adds two buttons into word so that users can add/remove the letterhead.
Anyway since word 2007 this has not worked and now we have moved to 2010 this has become a big issue. Any help is much appreciated.

I have uploaded the normal.dot file which I believe has the scripts in, I hope this is ok, I am limited in my VB knowledge so many thanks for offering to look at this.

That would be great, thanks for your help.
it is looking for a file located
S:\4_INFORMATION\2_LIBRARY
is it still there.....................
find this file put in on the network and then give me the location
and in the future do not remove / rename or change network path
i.e S:\ mapped drive for everybody's PC, file path remains untouched and file it self does not get renamed

Yes the file path is correct and the file is in that location, as I may have mentioned this works ok for Office XP and 2003 users.
S drive is mapped for all users and will not change.

MMMMmmmm it working here on Word 2010, Can you shed any more light on the situation
ASKER
Where have you placed the file out of interest?
ASKER
This is the message I get when trying it in Word 2010 if that helps? 
OK, try opening the file from your desktop also your Macro settings on Word need changing. Maybe you do not have the appropriate admin rights to do this?
ASKER
ok this works when opening the file direct. I have this problem even when akk the Macro items are set to enabled so wonder if I am missing something?
