Visual Basic and Word Events

[Phillip Wu]

Hi,

I am starting the Word application in Visual Basic.
I want my Visual Basic routine to be called when the user closes the
document in Word.

I am expecting that when the user closes test.doc then the routine
myword_close should be run.

But it does not work!

Please tell me how I should proceed.

Thanks in advance for any help.

Phillip
