Hi Bryan
First thing I tried, but with the document already open in the
background
So now I tried it your way (on my computer to simulate) and it works.
Just called the customer, and its ok now.

Infact with the document open if you look into options>fieldcodes the
choice is disabled due to the security. Closing the document and setting
the fieldcodes off in a blanc doucment did the tric...

Thank you very much Bryan and Tina...
Give yourself a tap on the shoulder and say out loud  "I am second to
none".

Nope.

Open a blank New document.

Select Tools|Options... |View Tab

Make sure that the Field Codes check box isn't checked.

OK your way out and reopen the offending document.
