Use one of the following methods to work around this problem:
Method 1: Record the Menu Action in WordBasic
Using the version of Word that you used to create the original WordBasic
macro, record the actions to perform the menu function, and then convert it
to a Visual Basic for Applications macro.
Method 2: Convert the Code to Visual Basic for Applications Commands
Edit the converted macro in the Visual Basic Editor and replace the
WordBasic commands with Visual Basic for Applications commands.
For example, change this converted WordBasic command line,
WordBasic.ToolsCustomizeMenus Name:="MySubMenu", Context:=1, _
Menu:="MyMenu", Remove:=1
to this Visual Basic for Applications command set:
' On the custom menu "My Menu",
With CommandBars.ActiveMenuBar.Controls("My Menu").CommandBar
' Delete the custom sub menu "My Sub Menu".
.Controls("My Sub Menu").Delete
End With
For more information about CommandBars, from the Visual Basic Editor,
click the Office Assistant, type
CommandBars, click Search, and then
click to view "CommandBars Object."
NOTE: If the Assistant is hidden, click the Office Assistant button on the
Standard toolbar. If the Assistant is not able to answer your query, please
