VB6RUN is all you should need. In your listings you had many fixmes. These just point out where additional functionality needs to be worked on but will work for Office 2003. What SPECIFICALLY happens when you attempt to run the VBA macro? Does it fail to fire, Word crashes, or does Linux lock up so that you have to reboot? Can you add what you get from your terminal session when you attempt to run the macro when you start Word from there, please. James McKenzie
