I have a simple Word document that has a pop up calendar as a part of it's functions. I need to get out to appx 300 people, but, something is happening and when I try on other computers it does not work. I have tried on my laptop, which I know has calendar control and still doesn't work. All the forms and procedures are in the document, not in the normal template and the document is not protected, nor does changing the security level help. I'm missing something that I'm sure is quite simple, but don't know what the is. Any suggestions would be great

I bet the issue is either related to group policy since the code has to run with the rights assigned to the logged-in-user, and group policy is blocking it.

Or a microsoft vba security patch gotcha:

Or even the client AV software does not trust it and it won't run.

If all those are wrong, then I would look really closely at VBA versions and other things like the use of absolute paths versus relative paths, etc....
