i am working on a web application that allows someone to open a word document in the browser (IE5.5) using a plug in. Now, there are some VB macros for Word
which allow user interaction with the document. So say I open a form which is a word document in my browser. The form asks for my phone number. When I click on the text field, a wizard opens up and gives me a list of area
codes to choose from. Based on the area code I choose, some other text fields (city, state, and county) in the form are auto populated. Now this functionality was working in IE before 5.5 but now it doesn't. I guess the
wizard box isn't auto-popping or whatever. The prognosis from the previous guy was that, IE5.5 has made a lot of changes and things are done much differently.
does anyone have any idea as to how i can solve this problem.
