I have the following task for a VBA program to run after opening a word doc attachment in a Microsoft Exchange internet server. eg
1. Obtain information within the doc to determine WHERE to store it locally and the NAME for the file (Which I already wrote and works)
2. EXIT the IE window that has the document open (which is a separate window).
3. Open that document in WORD. NOT THE IE EDITOR. If Word is not open, then start it up with that document open.
Here is some caveats:
1. "shell"ing to "Winword.exe" will open a new , separate instanced of Word if it is already open, don't want that, I encounter weird errors attempting to close that instance.
2. The obvious "Quit" app is quote "Not available"
3. "Sendkeys %FX to the IE window is unreliable and intermittent.
4. "AppActivate "Microsoft Word" is quote "Un available"
Thanks
Mike
