Converting word document to xml

[Bobby]

Using VBA, I am trying to convert a word doc to xml. The creation happens
without a problem but when I try to open it using word I get an error in the
xml document.

Basically I create a new xml file using the file system object and dump the
contents using "ActiveDocument.Range.XML"

I am under tight deadline and any help would be greatly appreciated.

BTW, I can't use the save-as. It is a limitation of one of the third party
app we are using.

thx

Then it is a poorly designed add-in...

Since you seem to be in a rush, the easiest would be to temporarily
deactivate the add-in (Tools > Templates and Add-ins...), do a Save-as and
then reactivate the add-in.

You could activate/reactivate the add-in in code, but since you are in a
rush. it is probably not necessary.
