If I remember correctly, there is a new syntax for 64 bit code
that replaces the "ThisApplication.ActiveDocument" portion that
has something to do with the fact that VBA is 32 bit, and AD has
not yet incorporated VSTA instead (though VSTA has been around
almost 4 years?). A search here should turn up something. I would
at least start with that, then see if it still crashes.
