How do you set a macro to run when a word document is opened?

How do you set a macro to run when a word document is word document is opened? The macro is only for that particular document.

I know how in excell, I merely name the macro auto_open. Doing so is not working in MS Word.

In the vba editor...

(make sure you select "this document" & not normal.dot)

then in the right frame, from the left drop down select "document" and in the right drop down "open"

you will see this auto generated


Private Sub Document_Open()
'your code goes here
End Sub

You should also be able to use AutoOpen in any code module, within Word. Note that it is AutoOpen, not Autpen.
