SYMPTOMS
When you save a Microsoft Word 98 Macintosh Edition document that contains Visual Basic for Applications code to another document format, such as Rich-Text Format (RTF), you receive the following warning:

All macros in this document will be lost if the document is saved in . Do you want to save in this format anyway?
