Transfer text access to word

I have a new version of Access 2003 and transferred my Access 97 files. 3
macros will not work in 2003. 2 of these relate to the Export Word for
Windows Merge transfer text macro. Each time I run this I receive a message
'Cannot update. Database or object is read-only. However, the database is
updatable, is opened in edit and all permissions appear to be in operation.
The database itself appears to be set up correctly. I set up a new database
but with the same result. This system worked without any problem in Access97.
Has anyone encountered similar problems? Whilst I can achieve the result
manually I would prefer to automate the updating of data to Word.
 
Many thanks. So simple when you know but very frustrating when you don't! You
have saved me some hours of research.
