Open Event

Occurs when a document is opened.

Private Sub Document_Open()

Remarks

If the event procedure is stored in a template, the procedure will run when a new document based on that template is opened and when the template itself is opened as a document.

For information about using events with the Document object, see Using Events with the Document Object.

Example

This example displays a message when a document is opened. (The procedure can be stored in the ThisDocument class module of a document or its attached template.)

Private Sub Document_Open()
    MsgBox "This document is copyrighted."
End Sub
