Opening a word file while in access97 1

[Bigpapou]

I can open word but not a specific files like "c:\something.doc". How can I do that?

Anything would help!!!

I have used something similar to this in the past:

Dim objWord As Object 'Word.Document
Dim objstr As String

objstr = "c:\something.doc"

Set objWord = GetObject(objstr, "Word.Document&quot
objWord.Application.Visible = True
objWord.Application.Documents.Open FileName:=objstr

TX maggieb!!!
The last line was the missing one.

objWord.Application.Documents.Open FileName:=objstr
