Hello,

I appreciate your help in advance. I open a word
document in my VB6 program in this way:

Dim WD As Object
Set WD = CreateObject("Word.Application.8")
With WD
.documents.open FileName:="C:\Bita.doc"
.Visible = True
.displayalerts = False
End With

I don't know how can I disable "Save As..." in File menu
so the user cannot save this file in the other files?

Regards,

Hi Bita

This code should sort you out.

Dim olapp As Word.Application
Dim MnuItem As CommandBarControl
Dim MnuCmd As CommandBarPopup
Set olapp = CreateObject("Word.Application")
olapp.Documents.Add
Set MnuCmd = olapp.CommandBars.ActiveMenuBar.Controls("File")
Set MnuItem = MnuCmd.Controls("Save &As...")
MnuItem.Enabled = False
olapp.Visible = True

You must include the Microsoft Office 10.0 Object Library and the Microsoft Word 9.0 Object Library in your project references also.

Hope it works !!!

Bobby.
