this makes no sense me , since program works fine on windows 7 machines have assume part microsoft update.  if compile program under windows 2000 operating system word files open correctly.  unfortunately, when microsoft automatically updated windows 2000 system recently compiling of vb6 programs not work.  rather compile on windows 7 system if solution available.

thanks,

it doesn't seem vba project. in case, issue might not be more related office program. diagnose vb6 program , more help, try links listed in following article:
