The user who performs the MS Word Merge must have Macros enabled for MS Word or it will not run. Macros can be enabled via the Tools menu > Macros > Security
The setting can be set to either Medium or Low. Medium is recommended, which means the user will have to agree to allow the Macro to run each time the document is opened.
You will have to go to Tools>Macro>Security - Trusted Publishers and check Trust access to Visual Basic Editor (or Visual Basic Project) before running the code. Change "Module1" to suit.
Note: when you are creating the original MS Word Merge document you will need to disable Macros while you work on the document. Otherwise the source “Text Form Fields” will be deleted by the Macro each time you open the document. You should only allow the macro to run when you have actually created the document via the MS Word Merge in SmartSimple.
