Summary: Pages 189 and 337 of the “Microsoft Word for Windows User’s Reference” manual incorrectly describe the Run Macro command. The command line sequence described in the manual winword /m macro-name returns the error message: Cannot find (path)(macro-name).DOC Note the space between /m and macro-name, where macro-name is the name of your macro. The manual should state the following: winword /mmacro-name Note there is no space between /m and macro-name.
