  It sounds like you might be using the Content Controls that were introduced in Word 2007. If you want something that will be compatible with Word 2003, you will need to either use the Legacy FormField type Dropdown, which requires that the document be Protected for Filling in Forms, or make use of a User Form.

If the insertion point is always the same, it would probably be much easier to place a bookmark or bookmarks at the target location(s) and insert the text into the range(s) specified by the bookmark(s). Trying to determine the insertion point relative to the top of the document/page is probably much more work that it's worth, especially as the ...

You do not need to test for the existence of document variables to assign a value to them. Your code could be reduced to: With ActiveDocument .Variables("weeknum").value = InputBox("Enter the fiscal two-digit week number", , , 400, 400) .Variables("regname").value = InputBox("Enter the first three letters of the region ...

Maybe you need the big stick approach. However, if your application is logically designed, users should have little reason to tinker with it. In almost all cases, it is poorly designed applications that do not do properly what the user want that invite tinkering.
