How do I exit a word application and not just close

[spruceni]

Hi
I have opened a word application and used Access to create a report.

Ihave saved the report and now I want to exit word.

So far I have found .close which will close the file but the blank word application still appears on the screen.
Here is the tail end of my sub

strDocName = strBusManName & "-Summary-" & Format(Now(), "dd-mm-yy")
strDocName = strFilePath & strDocName
ActiveDocument.SaveAs (strDocName)
ActiveDocument.Close

' Set the Word Object to nothing to free resources
Set WordObj = Nothing
DoCmd.Hourglass False

How do I make VBA shutdown Word?

 

[PHV]

strDocName = strFilePath & strDocName
[!]WordObj.[/!]ActiveDocument.SaveAs strDocName
[!]WordObj.[/!].ActiveDocument.Close
[!]WordObj.Quit[/!]
' Set the Word Object to nothing to free resources
Set WordObj = Nothing

Hope This Helps, PH.

Thank you

I never thought that the word was quit; rather than exit.
