word 2000 vba problem

Comment:
I've written a lengthy program in word VBA. The program works fine on most computers, including one with only 64 MB RAM. On some computers (for example, an identical win98 OS q word 2000 with 128 MB RAM), the functions just wont work, giving me an "automation error" message. The wierd thing about it is that when I copy the function to the Normal/Modules/NewMacros - it works fine. Let me emphasize again, that the same exact program works fine on a different computer with half the RAM (64 MB). TIA for any insight to this problem.

shot in the dark, but have you checked the macro security levels on the offending machine.

Have you considered attempting to run the program on another OS98 machine? There is obviously nothing wrong with the code. Are all the correct references set in the VBA IDE of the offending machine?
