I wrote a simple text doc in Word the other day and saved it to my desktop.  On closing Word, I got the following message under the heading, Microsoft Visual Basic: "compile error in hidden module AutoExec."

Now, every time I open or close Word that message appears.  All I have to do is click on OK and everything works fine; no functionality is lost.  There is also a Help button, which returns this message:

"A protected module can't be displayed. This error has the following cause and solution: 

"There is a compilation error in the code of the specified module, but it can't be displayed because the project is protected. 
Unprotect the project, and then run the code again to view the error. 

"For additional information, select the item in question and press F1(in Windows) or HELP (on the Macintosh)."

Any help in eliminating this annoyance will be appreciated. I am not a VB programmer and don't know where to start to find the "hidden module" though there are three files named AutoExec.NT on my computer and one named AutoExec.BAT.
