RoboHelp 5 & Word 2003

Question

Below is a macro, which disables the enter key while
completing a form, that is contained within a 2003 Word Document.
When the document is opened through WebHelp this error is produced:
Runtime error 4605 : This command not available.
However, if you go to the WebHelp directory and open the same
document no error occurs.
Another note - this same document works fine using Word 2007
via WebHelp.
Any ideas?
Sub EnterKeyMacro()
' Check whether the document is protected for forms
' and whether the protection is active.
If ActiveDocument.ProtectionType = wdAllowOnlyFormFields And
Selection.Sections(1).ProtectedForForms = True Then
' Retrieve the bookmark of the current selection.
' This is equivalent to the name of the form field.
myformfield = Selection.Bookmarks(1).Name
' Go to the next form field if the current form field
' is not the last one in the document.
If ActiveDocument.FormFields(myformfield).Name <> _
ActiveDocument.FormFields(ActiveDocument.FormFields.Count) _
.Name Then
ActiveDocument.FormFields(myformfield).Next.Select
Else
' If the current form field is the last one,
' go to the first form field in the document.
ActiveDocument.FormFields(1).Select
End If
Else
' If the document is not protected for forms,
' insert a tab stop character.
Selection.TypeText Chr(13)
End If
End Sub
Sub AutoNew()
' Do Not protect the template containing these macros.
CustomizationContext = ActiveDocument.AttachedTemplate
' Bind the ENTER key to the EnterKeyMacro.
KeyBindings.Add KeyCode:=BuildKeyCode(wdKeyReturn), _
KeyCategory:=wdKeyCategoryMacro, Command:="EnterKeyMacro"
' Reprotect the document with Forms protection.
ActiveDocument.Protect Type:=wdAllowOnlyFormFields,
NoReset:=True
End Sub
Sub AutoOpen()
' This macro will reassign the ENTER key when you open an
existing
' Word form fields document.
CustomizationContext = ActiveDocument.AttachedTemplate
' Bind the Enter key to the EnterKeyMacro.
KeyBindings.Add KeyCode:=BuildKeyCode(wdKeyReturn), _
KeyCategory:=wdKeyCategoryMacro, Command:="EnterKeyMacro"
End Sub
Sub AutoClose()
CustomizationContext = ActiveDocument.AttachedTemplate
FindKey(KeyCode:=BuildKeyCode(wdKeyReturn)).Disable
' Disables prompt to save template changes.
Templates(1).Save
End Sub

Hi Carolyn
Yes, I'm fully aware that WebHelp is an output option
available from RoboHelp for Word. The point is, it's a bit like
using a Cooper Mini to haul concrete to a construction site. In
other words, you can do it, sure. But if you do, you are subject to
limitations. You are creating HTML from a product designed to work
with Word. And Word was created for printed output. Anything else
is a hack and not within the guidelines of its original intent.
Like building a room onto a mobile home. So my reference to
RoboHelp HTML was intended to coax you into examining a more
suitable tool for the job that will likely provide a better result.
I suppose I read your post with a bit of tongue in cheek
humor. Especially the bit about Adobe putting out a product that
just doesn't work. We have to face realities. And one of those
realities is that software (any software) has quirks.
As you seem to be having issues making RoboHelp for Word
behave, I might assume (perhaps mistakenly) that the previous
person was using RoboHelp HTML.
Good luck in getting it all sorted... Rick
