Client has system which allows indirect object calls via hidden ActiveX controls on the form. They want to embed a Word document in a report and call it one time for each row of the report that is generated.
I can launch Word hidden and then create a .doc file for the report to pick up. The problem is their system can't store an object reference so I am using CreateObject each time to instantiate Word.
To avoid the overhead of constantly opening and closing Word, I would like to leave Word hidden and then use GetObject to reattach to it. But how can I ensure that I have the one I want and not a session that maybe the user started while the report runs for a long time.
Are there any API calls that would help with this, or is this something simple to do? Please forgive me if this is a really obvious question. Thanks for any help and/or suggestions you can give me!
Have a great day!
