Word VBA, Template Customization

Learned about creating editable forms: http://www.sunyacc.edu/sites/default/files/Documents/ITS/word_-_creating_fillable_forms_legacy_tools.pdf

And how to insert a Field (Ctrl-F9)!  http://www.techsupportalert.com/pdf/e1182.pdf
and Alt-F9 to toggle!

And How to automatically execute a Word macro when you create, open, or close a document vs. AutoNew()

More on Auto Macros (tip from this link: hold down shift when pressing OK to prevent auto macros from running)

Microsoft's name for the ribbon and quick access toolbar is "Fluent User Interface"
ref: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/office/ee704589(v=office.14).aspx

To remove a custom ribbon, simply edit the .rels file. see: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa338202.aspx#OfficeCustomizingRibbonUIforDevelopers_AddingDocumentBasedAddIns
This also appears to reenable a greyed out File Options, and Customize Ribbon buttons.

To find a bookmark by name do Ctrl-Shift-F5. Note: Protection must be disabled.
