I'm still not sure if I understood you correctly.
Here are the steps to recreate this situation. Let me know if something isn't clear.
1: open some other OO doc
2: open my binder covers template OO doc
3: the macro that runs on the open event (PromptForValues) brings up a dialog.
4: enter values in the dialog and click 'OK'
5: nothing happens
6: try rerunning PromptForValues. nothing happens after the dialog closes
6: open the macro editor
7: run PromptForValues again, enter values in the dialog
8: after the dialog closes, Texts will be updated with the values you entered
9: close all OO docs
10: open my binder covers template OO doc
11: the macro that runs on open (PromptForValues) brings up a dialog
12: enter values in the dialog and click 'OK'
13: after the dialog closes, Texts will be updated with the values you entered
Summary: Macros don't run when a 2nd OO file is open unless the macro editor
is open.
When ever the IDE must be open for a macro to work/run, I suspect that a
library is NOT loaded.
After you convince the macro to work by opening the IDE, will it work
AFTER you have closed the IDE again?
