Hi,
I've been good and done some of my own research & found out how to set this
up (reference to MS Kb Article 325234.
However! Whilst it works beautifully in Excel, I can't get it to work in
Word (which is the example that the guys from MS give!)
All that I get is an error message saying the file doesn't exist ( it
does...AND it's in the My Documents folder!) then I am presented with a new,
blank document.
Any ideas?
Regards
Colin Foster
 
I'd suggest asking this in microsoft.public.word.vba.beginners or
microsoft.public.word.vba.general.

This newsgroup is for questions about Access, the database product that's
part of Office Professional.
 
I just tried it and it appears to work. Will you copy and post the text from
your code?
 
Hi Wayne,
Stupid...stupid...stupid
What a moron I am!!!
I was forgetting to include the .doc filename extension when looking for the
file!!!!!!!!!
So, sorted
Thanks for your time & trouble
Regards
Colin
