Opening a word document in LotusScript

[RClarkeHudd]

Hi there,

I am having trouble opening a word document when trying to perform a mail merge using LotusScript. I am wanting the user to enter the file path of the word document.

At present i am using the follwing code:

' create an instance of Word
Dim wrd As Variant
Set wrd = CreateObject("word.application&quot

wrd.Documents.Open "T:\APLACEME\STD\LETTERS\NOTES.doc"

I have tried getting user input with the following code:

' create an instance of Word
Dim wrd As Variant
Set wrd = CreateObject("word.application&quot

userinput = Inputbox("Please enter the template filepath. ", db.Title,"C:\''''filepath''''&quot

wrd.Documents.Open userinput

I know this does not work because 'userinput' is a string without the speech marks.

Can anyone suggest a work around.

Much appreciated

Richard
