Word macro question HELP!

[Julie Boskey <jboskey -at- WHEELS -dot- COM>]

     A programmer I work with is having a tough time with a Word 95 macro.
     Below is his email explaining the problem. If anyone can give him
     advice about the problem or where he can find the answer, we would
     appreciate it.

     Thanks.

     I am currently trying to create a macro to validate data entries on a
     form.  I want the macro to run when the user tries to save the form.
     If all the required fields have data, I want the save to continue.
     If a required field does not have data, then I want the save to abort
     and the focus of the program to jump to the empty field.

     I currently have the macro working and I named it AutoClose to run
     when the program shuts down.  However there are two problems.


     1) The user can select the save button and still save the form with
     the incorrect data.

     2) If the user tries to exit word or close the document the macro
     fires.  The macro notifies the user there are empty fields the user
     then gets the message to either save, not save or cancel the save
     operation.

     I want the macro to fire during a save not when the program closes
     down or when the document is closed.  Is there any way to do this?

     Any help would be appreciated, replies can be posted here or sent to
