  With Word 2003, I defined a macro (with Record New Macro) to try to save a Word document as an XML file.  I don't need schema validation; I just want to save the file as XML.

  I get the Visual Basic error message: "Run-time error '6119': This document cannot be saved as XML because its structure violates the rules set by one or more attached schemas."

  There should be no attached schemas, and I don't want the file validated anyway.

  Saving the file manually with "Save as..." and choosing the *.xml file type, and checking the "Save data only" box works fine.  The recorded macro, which I thought would go through these same steps, does not work.

  Suggestions appreciated.  The macro is below

  Sub SaveXML()
  '
  ' SaveXML Macro
  '
      With ActiveDocument
          .XMLSaveDataOnly = True
          .XMLUseXSLTWhenSaving = False
          .XMLSaveThroughXSLT = ""
          .XMLHideNamespaces = False
          .XMLShowAdvancedErrors = True
          .XMLSchemaReferences.HideValidationErrors = True
          .XMLSchemaReferences.AutomaticValidation = False
          .XMLSchemaReferences.IgnoreMixedContent = False
          .XMLSchemaReferences.AllowSaveAsXMLWithoutValidation = True
          .XMLSchemaReferences.ShowPlaceholderText = False
      End With
      ActiveDocument.SaveAs FileName:="Process.xml", FileFormat:=wdFormatXML, _
          LockComments:=False, Password:="", AddToRecentFiles:=True, WritePassword _
          :="", ReadOnlyRecommended:=False, EmbedTrueTypeFonts:=False, _
          SaveNativePictureFormat:=False, SaveFormsData:=False, SaveAsAOCELetter:= _
          False
  End Sub
