Finding the name o an open Word document

[nochoice]

Hey everybody,

I open a document (doc1.doc) using the file open command (like clicking with my mouse no code), I then click a button in doc1.doc, and it opens a new document (doc2.doc). How do I find the name of doc1.doc? The reason is, I need to pass the value of a checkbox from doc1.doc to doc2.doc.

Hi,
In the Documents collection is the name of all opened documents. The document that you are in is called ActiveDocument. So...

For Each doc in Documents
   If Doc.Name <> ActiveDocument.Name Then
      'Doc is the other document 
   End If
Next

Hope this helps
