Yes. An AutoOpen macro can display a message or a UserForm. What are you
trying to do?

In general, you'll need a macro. What the macro has to do depends on what you
want in the popup. If it's just some text for the user to read, then the macro
can just contain a MsgBox statement that displays the text. If you want anything
more complicated, you'll need a UserForm (read
http://www.word.mvps.org/FAQs/Userforms/CreateAUserForm.htm).
