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
