I could not even create new snippets in a new document.

It looked as though the, or at least *a* script was still there.  I 
deleted it and re-did the macro set-up.  Now it's working again.

Ok, fair enough.  I'll keep that in mind.  BUT, can it be safely saved 
as a *.doc file and still have the surrounding text edited in Word 
without trouble?

I'm also wondering about my Linux installation.  I'm getting some random 
freezes which require a hard reboot.  I'm also getting an error box when 
Gnome starts up.  Something about the Settings Daemon restarting too 
many times.  I'm wondering if this is part of this trouble with the 
macro suddenly not working.

Thanks,
